This is embarrassing. Not matching the energy from the first half.

Almost everyone on the roster has either led the league in 3pt% or led the team in 3pt% at one point in their career.

NBA leaders in the past 4 years (at one point):
Bogdanovic
Ingles
O'neal
Niang

Team 3pt leaders (at one point):
Mitchell
Clarkson
Conley

The only other two in the rotation are Gobert and Favors

2 solid centers surrounded by 7 elite/top tier 3pt shooters.

Even when 1 or 2 of them have an off night, someone else might pop off, hence Bogdonovic missing all of his 3's today and the Jazz still hitting a franchise record.

why is Lebron barking at Harrell? He caused that turnover cause he can't post up smaller players. :lol: :lol:

This Lakers team without Davis is so meh, said from the start of the season that last season's team was better since they had an identity and this yea'rs team doesn't Last seasons team never lost when leading at start of the 4th, the D was gooood.

The Lakers this season with no Davis is barely a playoff team, but MVP though.

Right.

A good mix of shooters & guys who can score a bucket. Meanwhile Gobert anchors their defense. It's a well put together team. Fun to watch.

A simple start like On/Off has LeBron at +11.5, Caruso at +7, KCP at +6.6, Davis at +5.6, Schroeder at +2.1

If Davis was the most important player then wouldn't he be the best in this category?
