    the issue was that they shot 51 (!) threes and only knocked down 15. They have no clue what to do on offense and that has been the case since the first round.

    OKC is actually beating these 3-point shooting teams by making 2s. They only shot 21 threes in this game.
    It's almost like they zig when everyone else zags... I wonder where they learned that...

    Wolves look so flawed. Conley is limited, Ant ghosting, Gobert can’t make anything but a dunk, and Reid’s shooting motion is such that he can’t get a decent look. They may bully their way into a couple wins but won’t be too surprised if they get swept.

    Its funny that 10 years ago so many posters (malikhairston for example) here said that a PG spuperstar led team will never win a championship.lmao
    we might see 2. Curry warriors and SGA thunder.
    Ten years ago, there were a ton of posters arguing that Westbrook was better than Curry. Harlem Heat & Apolisoc 9 were the leaders of that debate iirc.

    OKC better hope Knicks don't make the finals because SGA isn't getting those calls against them.

    Every time I see SGA get a whistle in his favor, I think about how Castle could do the same, and now Harper.

    Maybe he meant a traditional pass first PG in which case I agree.
    Magic was an outlier.

    Btw, Stockton was an overrated system PG, there, I said it

    Harper needs to immerse himself in as much prime Harden game footage as possible!

    Their staggered screens

    I also think the Heat got way with a lot of kickball violation no calls '11 - '14

    They know enough to cut back and shoot 2s when the other team is shooting themselves in the foot. 3 may be > 2, but 2 is also definitely > 0.

    3 is also better than 0 by more than 2 is better than 0

    its about the expectated points per shot. an open corner 3 that goes in 45% of the time (HB made 48% of his, or as Sean Elliott put it, 100%) is getting you 1.35 points per attempt. you'd need a 2pt shot with an expected 67% to compete with that. basically, a shot at the rim.

    now, a team settling for low% 3's, bad, pull-up contested looks without having created a true open or catch and shoot look that will only go in ~30% of the time is only as good as a 45% 2-point shot, which as we know is not good.

    then yes theres the added expectation of fouls, how long rebounds are, etc.

    usually, boston doesnt just walk the bull up and hoist a 3. sometimes tatum goes in iso mode and does this, but generally boston is swinging the ball around and attacking, creating a consistent stream of open 3pt looks, which is why theyve been successful

    warriors perfected the art of moving screens...its almost as if the fact that draymond and all the others setting a screen and walking backwards with the defender on their hip

    somehow stumps the refs and because they are walking backwards - the refs appear to believe its a legal screen...
