    Seriously tho, this team was built to be an inside out team where the outside guys are supposed to hit 3s at a high clip. If they don't do what they were brought here for, the team concept doesn't work. That said, hitting shots is a function of not just being in a groove, but the ability of the team to set up shots that players are comfortable with. That's why chemistry is key and we've been building up some of that chemistry recently.

    Its partly fluky, but its also indicative of much better ball-movement and spacing.

    Key to scoring is putting it in the hole from distance

    stop the presses... the secret to winning is to make more shots than your opponent.

    yeah, there's a term they use when a team has to shoot 47% from 3 point land to win...ya know, when you build a team really dependent on the long bomb.

    what was that term....hmmmm

    oh yeah!

    and because of all the new personal, it took a while 2 build that chemistry = slow start
    hopefully they got some momentum goin and re-intergrating AB0 & yao doesnt take very long
