Blazers w/ 3pt record

[Fez Hammersticks]

Kevin Pelton:
Per @bball_ref, the Blazers' 73.9% 3-point shooting tonight is best ever for a team w/at least 20 3PA (was 71.4%)

 

[Natebishop3]

Just ridiculous shooting. I've never seen anything like it.

 

[Hobbesarable]

The hoop certainly seemed like an ocean for them tonight!

 

[magnifier661]

We also got the most 3 point makes in a game tonight as well

 

[Strenuus]

Damn! A full 2 percent. Yeah. Everytime I heard "for 3" I knew it was in. That was nuts.

And what did the Jazz do to counter it? Uhh...

 

[Strenuus]

To put it even better, We MADE 6 more three pointers than the Jazz attempted.

 

[Natebishop3]

If Barton hadn't clanked that three, we would have finished over 77%.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

It's the highest 3P% for a team that made over 15 threes in NBA history.

Baton 0-2

.739 (17-23) is the highest 3-point % ever for a regular season game with at least 15 made. 2 playoff games exceeded it.

Damn, same year, looks like same round, too!

11 days apart!

I wrote "15 attempts" but meant "15 made." I have now edited it.

 

[LuckyShot]

Damn. We have one 50% 3 point shooter, two sitting at 40% and another off the bench shooting 38%. And they have a lot of attempts. I'm leery of us relying on the 3 point shot so much, but the way we get most of those shots with great ball movement is hard to argue with.

Oh! I think I know why... 1996 was when they brought in the three point line a foot, isn't it?

EDIT: Judging from Uncle Cliffy's 3pt attempts, it looks like 1994-95 was the first year they moved the line in, and they moved it back out after 1996-97.

 

[KingSpeed]

Unbelievable.

 

[PapaG]

Has Pelton adjusted his preseason prediction for the Blazers to reflect reality again?

I don't get this perception. Portland beat the Pacers without the 3 ball. The Blazers are taking what teams give them. They aren't relying on anything.

We are taking what the defense gives us... it's a cliche, but when a team buys into actually doing it, it looks amazing.

He's laid extremely low since his 1st attempt to save face - no doubt waiting for OKC and IND games to validate his magic show. I won't be surprised if we don't hear from him for a while. lol

Exactly. Were you reiterating, or did I mis-type? lol

I literally skipped your middle sentence and read everything else.

 

[Nhawz]

Live by the 3, Die by not taking enough attempts!

 

[ripcityboy]

Thats what I am talking about.

So much for the sheep betting on the Blazers' shooting to "come back down to earth."

Hell if I know. Must have been before my time. 1996, 1986, 1976, it's all the same to me.

When I said the dark knight always rises, they laughed. He leads NBA in 3pt %
When we said lillard would shoot his way out of it, they scoffed lillard 5/6 from 3 tonight.
When I said lamarcus needs MVP chants, they mocked, then he fucked around and got 38/13/5/2 with no turnovers and followed it with a +45 to lead the NBA thus far this season.

It is with disingenuous regret, Blazer fans would like to apologize to the National Media for any missed dead lines on account of a broken printer.

Damn if feels good to be a Gangsta.
