Overall, it paints the picture of a middling team, a tad below average in some cases, and a tad better in a few, but it's a team that is deficient in 3pt shooting, just like everybody says. Three is still more than two.

Pretty even except for the 2’s vs 3’s part. Which we all know is the reason they lose games.
Look up any spurs loss this season and the opponent will have gone off from three.
Spurs lose bc of bad defense and the inabilllity to control the pace of a game.
