Shump, Delly and JR shot 25.4% (15-59) from 3pt range the last 3 games, 25.3% (23-91) overall FG%.
and for perspective
Iggy, Barnes, Barbosa shot 44.4% (16-36) from 3 the last 3 games. 35% (29-83) overall FG%.
Fact is that without Kyrie there was only 1 real threat to drive to the basket with LeBron. Which means they could better cover our guys. They got in our faces and rattled us. Doesn't explain the WIDE OPEN misses but it's a start.
Also, 91 total shots means Shump, JR, and Delly had 30 shots combined those last 3 games. That is them being used WAYYYY more than they are used to. They averaged a combined 14.25 FGA/game in the Boston series. Asking players to double their usage rate because of injury can go one of two ways. We know which way it went for us.
ps I don't know why I used Barbosa for this. Deal with it.
