Games like this make me wonder if they really are coasting.
Like I 100% agree, they should play hard every night and can't be blowing games against Washington. But you see when the team is engaged, hustling and playing defense too that they look unstoppable. Just like against a great Kings team on the road last week, now MIL tonight.
there's a valid point here but this is also a night when they aren't bricking 3's (for the most part). they're still a live by the 3, die by the 3 team.
Eh, somewhat, but the offense is still plenty varied and not totally reliant on the three. We're only shooting 23 of 52 shots (roughly 44%) from three point land, which seems to be a good number for this team. Anecdotally, it's when that three point shot starts getting over the 50% threshold when it starts feeling like they're relying too heavily on it.
Yes, making shots will always be crucial to winning, but I don't think we can complain about the shot selection tonight. There's been a few tough shots that we've made, but it's mostly been good shots that have been created due to the variety and robust nature of our offensive attack tonight.
