Jaylen Brown's on the verge of joining some elite company in Boston's 1,000 3PM club.
1. Paul Pierce – 1,823 3PM
2. Jayson Tatum – 1,248 3PM
3. Jaylen Brown – 997 3PM
Jaylen Brown is awesome, but its insane how steep thee explosion of three pointers has been.
Every time I see a stat that says this is the first player with, x, y and 3+ made three pointers a game, EVER, what they really mean is "since about 2015" because before that almost nobody even took 3+ threes a game.
Which is itself kind of insane becasue it took the NBA literally 30 years to realize an a guy who could shoot even 35% from three was better than a 50% shooter form two.
If Brown and Tatum play out their next contracts here they are likely to surpass Peirce.
