It'd be interesting to hear from guys who were shooters who came here and stopped being good 3pt shooters what the difference was. They all do their individual thing to get ready for games, but are other teams practicing 3pt shooting more and in different ways from the way we do? It'd be interesting to hear if guys just always have off years with us or if we're doing something to facilitate a down shooting year like lack of dedicated practice time.

I think Mike Miller just stopped shooting them (even when WIDE open) just to fuck with my head.

Of course, a byproduct of this is the Wolves are just one game out of the 5th seed! :)
It hasn't been mentioned to my knowledge, Tim, but I have been following it. The East is actually 5 games ahead of the West this year, a huge turnaround from other years. And if you take out Golden State, the rest of the West is now 20 games below .500! That's why a .500 record in the West right now gives you a 5th seed. Combined with the Wolves' obvious improvement on defense, that is why I'm still on the playoff train. In prior years, a few good Western teams didn't make the playoffs. This year it looks like a couple average teams might make it.
