Like they didn't. He had nine 2 point shots and scored just 3. They tried post up (horrible again), he tried driving a couple of times (only successful once). Dude is just off, still shaking that rust off. Shooting open threes is his most efficient offense at the moment, if you ask me.
He has been shooting 3s pretty average even before his injury. There is no reason to take that many 3s today. If he is missing 2s out of high post sets, it is ok.I feel there is something to build there There is no reason for Luka either to be taking so many 3s. We are acting like these guys are 40% career 3 pt shooters.
I understand this team has decided to live and die by the 3. I don’t think it is smart or builds up good habits in the long run. I made a thread on this before the season started hoping they would not do that this year because I saw a lot of this last year too. Unfortunately they seem to have decided that’s the way to go.
