That’s impressive shooting - but it also shows just how ridiculous the NBA game has gotten. 44 3PA per game?
The Niners attempt 24 per game and we are a pretty prolific 3P college team.
Granted the NBA game is 48 minutes vs 40 for college, but even pro-rated that is still the equivalent of 37 3PA per 40 minutes. Almost 1 per minute, and 50% more than the Niners attempt.

The NBA is played at a higher pace both by shot clock and in general.
I agree the level of 3 pointers is too high but I don’t know what they can do about it.
Probably time to evaluate moving the 3-point line back.
The shot has become to easy.
And some freaked out when Charlotte drafted him

And yet he probably won’t win ROY.
Why not?
Yes I did. Never been more wrong!!!
Whoever chooses the ROY probably will choose someone like Cooper Flagg, who happens to NOT be a Charlotte Hornet.
No argument that Flagg was having a good season personally but has been injured and sidelined, which is why Spurs’ rookie Dylan Harper was named Western Conference ROM for February. Plus there’s the fact that the Mavs are in tanking mode. It would be a travesty if Cooper is crowned ROY, though All-Rookie team is fine.

Over approximately 2 decades, the average number attempted in the NBA has roughly tripled from 12 to 36.

Hornets score an even 130 in the win as well.

Is this just for Spectrum? Didn’t the original Charlotte Coliseum have multiple consecutive seasons of sellouts.
Yes. It’s just the Spectrum. The Hornets sold out multiple SEASONS consecutively at the Tyvola coliseum.
