The Boston Celtics began their season with an impressive performance against the New York Knicks, hitting a record-tying 29 three-pointers. This achievement highlights their strategy and reliance on long-range shooting, as they have already set a record with 23 games featuring 50 or more attempts before the All-Star break. However, their increased attempts, up by 14% from last year, raises concerns about their performance when 3-pointers don't fall, demonstrating both their prowess and reliance on this shooting strategy.
The Celtics are on pace to obliterate the league's single-season attempts record at 48.3 per game, showcasing a significant rise in their 3-point shooting.
In their quest for history, the Celtics experienced a telling dynamic of their season: how reliant they are on the 3-pointer and what happens when it fails.
