Way, way, way, way, way too overreliant on the three. If we don't win the title this year (when healthy), that's absolutely going to be the reason why.

The refs are surely trying to keep this within the 7.5 point spread. That wasn’t a foul on Sam!
Nailed it!

both JT and JB taking too many bad 3s., some of them have been ok shots, but on these nights that neither one can hit a barn please make some adjustments

Sometimes 2 for 1 is dumb

Yes - it sure was there.  Momentum was with Denver, slow it down. 

Nuggets have closed all 3 quarters better than the Cs.

Yup, live by the 3 or die by the 3. Not great to roll the dice this way.

C's have 30 points in the paint compared to Denver's 28. They refuse to keep attacking at times though and it keeps other teams in the game when they are bricking.

13-38 for 34% from three.

17-30 for 57% from two.

So of course we keep jacking threes, even when we can get to the rim at will against both of their bad players.

Seriously, if we don't win a title when healthy, it will absolutely be due to us being too reliant on the three.

That 2:1 resulted in 2 horrible shots. Hopefully we have a much better 4th quarter.

I hate the two for one. Just get a good shot.
