Watching the Mavs these playoffs you see the future of basketball. In 5 years, every team in the NBA will have a 3par around 50%

Maybe Dinwiddie should just take 3s. :D Not as successful shooting near the basket to say the least.

Is Ayton going to positively impact any of these games, or is he just going to sit there and do nothing?

I agree and it’s why they need to get rid of the three point line. This kind of offense is a joke. Players passing up layups to shoot threes. YouTube Grinell basketball for a good glimpse of the future

3 seconds and 5 seconds should be something they can automate...don’t need refs trying to count and watch every aspect of a play

3p shooting.

Mavs 12/18 midway the 2nd quarter.

Bucks 12/52 in the last two games against the Celtics.

It's like we are playing a different game.. :lol:

They got magnets inside the rim. This is illuminati controlling basketball game.

Dallas' defence is really working this game. Making Phoenix really work to try and exploit any kind of mismatch.

He's a strange case.
He seems to be crafty with his handles but becomes a clumsy 7 footer whenever he's near the rim.

Feels like Dallas should be up 25 now. +11 is not enough to win this game. Dallas will not keep shooting like this all game...
