Maybe @Who or someone smarter than me here can attest to this, but something I've noticed is, it seems certain teams like OKC and MEM have played us this season where they purposely leave guys open, or dare us to take 3s because they feel they can't defend the Jays and our guards that well inside. Particularly, Horford and Jrue. It seems a safe bet if you leave one or both open and just let them shoot, there's a chance they won't make many and they are also on the older side.
MEM did this with success earlier in the year in a game they beat us and Jrue was like 4-17 from 3. OKC did a little of that in the first matchup, and they seem to be trying it again today although Horford has actually torched them. White has also gone nuclear. Jrue is 1-4 so far.
