My understanding is how the basketball nerds look at is, is the defense can’t consistently control how other teams shoot from three so the goal is to just limit the number of opposing three point shot opportunities.

Correct. Miami Heat successfully did that in 2023 ECF. And if Tatum didn't turn his ankle, we would've still won.

We got a good Bench.
Put Horford on there, and we beat half the Teams.

That last time out by Joe was fantastic, the players responded very well defensively and now we got some decent separation going into the fourth quarter

It’s good when they make them. Let’s see if they can win a title that way. Again I mentioned last year they had balance inside and outside.

They shot literally 60 more 3PTA attempts than Miami over those seven games, and still lost. It was a real learning experience.

Yeah. It messes him up, for the next play.
He's jabbering at the Ref and/or being sullen.

Brown didn't forward the pass to Hauser then threw a bad pass to KP. Wish he "kept" the ball less. Happens often esp in those screening actions where screener slips. They often lose the advantage.
