I didn’t start watching basketball until around the mid to late 2010s but I’ve seen old games and I admit I like the old school way of playing basketball like the pistons are doing so I played and practiced that era’s style in high school for PE I was more of a rebounder making saves many times from the ball about to go out of bounds flying into the bleachers sometimes and I liked practicing midrange shots while i practiced dirk’s fade away and Kareem’s sky hook since I was taller than most teachers and sometimes students in PE. If I shoot the basketball I always aim for the back board square to keep it simple in scoring like Tim Duncan in a way too.
Well Duncan Robinson accounts for about 40% of their 3pt attempts, and he is a career 40+% 3pt shooter. I think they are letting the specialist, account for a higher number of their attempts, which is what it used to be before Curry opened it up. The shooting guard was your best 3pt shooter.
Going from the worst team to the best in just 2 years. They already beat their record last year (44 wins) which was 30 wins over the previous year. I can understand why nobody is talking about the Hornets' improvement this season in the media, but why ignore the top seed in the east? We got mediocre teams like the Lakers hogging the airwaves. I'm a (self-aware) Laker fan and even for me it's annoying.
ik every hates OKC but they won the championship while betting on defense and now teams are finally playing defense and now the Bad Boy Pistons are back and basketball is slowly reviving itself
When every other team shoots threes all game players get accustomed to defending that style. So when they see something completely different they are all fish out of water.

They bringing back the bad boy Pistons🔥
That’s why their offense can get stagnant though

Who’s here after the cavs beat them without Donovan Michell

Not enough experience in my opinion. Give em one or two years of deep playoff runs and then consider a championship
The bad boys have been revived

Crazy comeback honestly if they win the chip
The Hornets playing the Pistons in ECF will be absolute cinema
Yeah how'd that work against the Spurs?
Nah, they let specialists like Duncan Roberson do what they do best, shoot.
its crazy how they had an insane losing streak to having the best record
so how are they breaking the rules?

Thunder has the best record on the league bro
They just got rolled by the Spurs, who can shoot the threes
Finally a team that’s gonna bring back good basketball 💪
This is why the spurs own them. Can’t be attacking the paint all game with a Wemby standing there
Jalen Duren went to my friends high scjool

Thank goodness. The NBA got boring when it became a 3-ball league.
