    I don't agree with it. I think we rely way too much on the jump shot, and I think that we're basically a "soft" team.

    We shoot 67% jumpshots.

    Magic shoot 66% jumpshots.

    Lakers shoot 63% jumpshots.

    Hawks shoot 63% jumpshots.

    Celtics shoot 66% jumpshots.

    Suns shot 66% jumpshots.

    Spurs shoot 68% jumpshots.

    Cavs shoot 66% jumpshots.

    Mavs shoot 68% jumpshots.

    Most teams rely heavily on the jumpshot, not just us.

    The Blazers shoot a ton of contested shots.

    The Jazz shot a ton of jumpers last night but a lot of the time they were wide open. A lot of teams get more quality looks than the Blazers do. This is probably because they Blazers don't know what they're supposed to do on offense.
