Best team shooting performances so far this year

I honestly didn't think anybody this year would be beating Phoenix's performance against Denver (where they hit 20 threes), but it looks like it may have happened today. I was surprised, to say the least. Here are the best games I can remember so far this year:

Boston (vs. Philly) - January 18th
58.9 fg% / 63.6 3fg% (14/22) / 76.2 ft%

Phoenix (vs. Denver) - January 7th
53.8 fg% / 64.5 3fg% (20/31) / 94.4ft%

From today:
Toronto (vs. Boston) - January 23rd
58.0 fg% / 71.4 3fg% (15/21) / 100.0 ft%

I'm sure there are more that should be included here. Post 'em up, because I'm sure I'm missing a few.

And Toronto still only won by two. That's incredible.

Yeah big ups to Toronto for doing it against the best defensive team in the league.

I saw the game. Simply unbelievable! They kept finding a way to score even when Boston adjusted their defense in the 4th quarter.

Didn't the Lakers shoot 66% overall against Philly?

And this can be attributed to just 4 players.

Parker
Delfino
Calderon
Bargnani

Their best 3 point shooter Kapono didnt even take one 3!

Best for the Hornets is this one vs. Miami. 61% from the field 62% from 3. PG's went 20/20 10-10 from 3. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore;_y ... 2008011103

The Magic broke the franchise record tonight as well making 18 three pointers.

Shot 55% for the game too.

Looks like it was a night for 3's.

You'll probably have a hard time finding people who agree that 66/57/87 against the Sixers is better than 58/71/100 against the Celtics. Not that any particular team is more difficult to shoot free throws against

nice shooting by the raptors

The 66.2% FG% we had against the Sixers is the highest for any team this season I think. Having said that, I'm hugely impressed at 57/71/100 against the Celtics and that would be the best performance from an overall perspective IMO.

We won by 2 pts only because we had like 17 or 18 turnovers and they had about 12 more offensive rebounds than us... Thats why i was so surprised we won... It was a recipe for disaster... but we pulled through... They made up for the Philly loss i guess...
