6-31 from 3

On an ok shooting night this is a blowout. The 3s weren't even heavily contested for the most part
and here is the problem I have with the offense. 31 3s from a team no ZERO 3 point specialist is terrible. We shot that many 3s because Orlando only allowed long distance shots. We don't have Ray, Mike, JJ, Reshard anymore

Walker, Chalmers and Dragic are supposed to be shooters though, you gotta take the shots or you won't get anything at the rim.

Then we only have 3 bigmen, really need Blatche ASAP

You can't run an offense based on those being your primary 3 point shooters. all are mid 30 or lower percent shooters, and one guy hasn't been in the league in 2 years. I'm not blaming the players, I'm blaming the system

Rio is shooting well below that too. 27% I think :scust:. It's on management and our coach. It didn't help that role players got all star money last summer killing the market for us.

Good to see them pull out an ugly win. They didn't shoot the ball well, but Orlando was playing pretty good defense which played a part in the poor shooting. They've got good size and athleticism at the guard spots.

404 to 205
:laff:

man, it was bleak, plus they weren't hitting shyt. shot under 40% for the game, hadn't made a 3 since like the 2nd quarter. down 7 with like 30 seconds left. had to get a couple baskets from wade, and turnover where normally you would foul them and them to the line, and a missed free throw from them, and TWO 3s from a d leaguer who was 0-7 from three before hitting those.
damn i missed out :mjcry:

I'm surprised the Media isn't killing Wade for passing up that last shot. Then again Walker was hot
