Are we becoming a 3 pointer team?! Do you have any statistic about how many threes do we take for game?! Thanks

2058 attempts in 71 games. Ranks 4th in the NBA in 3FGA. 5th in 3s/gm made (Port jumps us as they shoot a higher %).

Last year the 5 teams with the most 3 pt makes were the last 5 standing. And the whole league is shooting more (again). Cavs were second in 3pt attempts last year at 27.5/gm. It has gone up to 29/gm this season. Rate of makes has gone down from .367 to .359 from last year to this year. Mostly due to LBJs struggles shooting I imagine.

17 offensive boards against the likes of the long Bucks? That is quite impressive and this team played with motivation tonight and it showed. Loved the offensive wealth spread and just loved the fact that they looked like they were having fun out there that turned into smart solid basketball.

The Bucks rank dead last, by a fair margin in DRB%.

Monroe has been an abject failure at the 5 and will likely be moved this offseason as his presence has had a detrimental impact on both Giannis and Jabari's offensive game (cutting down driving lanes, etc) and his defense has been horrifying (was #4 D last year and #28 this year)

I watch a LOT of Bucks and while Giannis took it as a personal opportunity to play against LeBron, they appear to be tanking. They have taken Giannis off ball and given it to Bayless. That's not conducive to winning for them. AT ALL. But it makes sense. They went from the 8th/9th pick to the 11th pick in the two weeks they unleashed him. With Denver and NYK not even having their own picks and being in virtual ties with Milw, its pretty clear the Bucks have taken their foot off the gas in hopes of getting the #9 pick.

Still, when the ball moves like it did last night its almost always a good thing.

We miss an ungodly amount of open threes. I'm surprised that percentage is even that high considering lbj and ktries rough start, plus everyone else. Lol love to shump.

Taking an extra 1.5 should inherently bring down the percentage a bit too
