    [QUOTE="DavidRocket, post: 11085306, member: 37322]15/60 3s may or may not yield a win against the Warriors in a given game. I agree it's a bad percentage, but the sheer volume could win them the game.....certainly possible.[/QUOTE]
    Are you serious? 15/60 means 45 points on 60 attempts. How are you going to win with such horrible %? Let's say you get 90 shot attempts a game, and you shoot 50% on 2s. You end up with 45+30=75 points. The whole point of shooting 3s is to score more efficiently, generate more points per attempt.

    Maybe he's not in the U.S. Probably China? His signature pretty much shows.

    Utah beat the Clippers. 5th beat the 4th. Technically, it's an upset :)

    It's about making a high volume of threes, not shooting and bricking a high volume of them. U will get blown off the floor if u need 60 attempts from 3 just to make 15 of them. The Rockets will need to be having 19-43, 22-50, etc type of games in order to have a chance.

    That's a pretty shitty goal seeing as we've been able to at least win ONE GAME each time we've faced them in the playoffs last 2 years.

    Rocket River speaks with wisdom. We knock down the enemy in our sights first.

    My sources say that hands are not the only thing that the Warriors are rubbing.
