Clippers owner can’t believe J.J. Redick blew a wide-open layup

Redick might want to stick to shots from behind the arc.

J.J. Redick is having one heck of a season. He's shooting 48 percent from the filed, 48 percent from deep and 88 percent from the free throw line. That puts him in elite company -- only Stephen Curry, Kawhi Leonard and Kevin Durant are putting up similar shooting numbers this season.

But great shooting doesn’t mean you’re immune to a case of the yips.

It was as ugly a miss as you can get. And Steve Ballmer, the Clippers owner, was none too pleased.

In Redick’s defense, he came down and nailed a three with a hand in his face on the next play. Shooters keep on shooting -- even when they blow a wide-open layup.
