So we're going to use a sample size of 3-4 games to determine who the best shooting team is? I understand you have to homer at all times, but come on.

4 game sample size and you put the rockets their who has played a game less.

If a 4 game sample is all you'd like to use, then yes, you win. Greatest 3 point shooting team of all time.

Oh, okay.

Over the last 20 games

Sixers - 252 threes
Warriors - 201
Celtics - 198

The Rockets have made an absurd 293 :lol but I’ll chalk some of that up to them shooting like 60% of their FGA’s from behind the arc

Like I said though....Rockets are the only acceptable answer over the Sixers.
 
Embiid shot 30% in 63 games. But you're going with the 2 game sample. You're better than that, coach carter

Of course he shot like trash but again, he’s good enough for the defenses to respect his 3 ball. Isn’t that the topic of discussion? Is he a threat?

A superstar big shooting 30% from 3 is acceptable
 
They shot the same damn percentage for the season :lol:. In that last game miami wasn't guarding his shot and he didn't punish them from 3. But I get it

full
 
The quality of these threes matter. I'm sure Joel Embiid isn't getting wide open looks here everyone just stands around waiting for him to shoot it.
 
how is dray not a threat? he takes the shot within the system and makes a good enough amount. ya acting like he's tony allen out there and not knowing what to do when he has the ball.
 
If dray is shooting then KD, Steph, and klay aren’t shooting.

We’ll live

that's totally fine, but dray isn't out there taking 20+ shots and costing his team when he misses. obviously, defense prefers him to take the shot, but folks are acting like teams are just leaving him open and having his defender play free safety :lol:
i agree that it would've been a problem if the dubs didnt have another star in KD :lol

But they are leaving him open hoping he’s taking these shots. They have 3 guys that can get 50. It’s physically impossible for him to get up 20 shots on a team with that much firepower. Teams will gladly let Draymond shoot. He’s not a 1 dimensional player so he’s smart enough to pass some of them up.
 
Defenses usually give Draymond 5+ feet of space anytime he’s at the three point line while Embiid has defenders bite for his pump fake 90% of the time behind the line. He hasn’t shot it that well this year but there’s a big difference between the two of them as shooters.
