[Lewenberg] After going 5-for-32 (15.6%) tonight, the Raptors are now 7-0 (not a typo) when shooting below 26% from 3-point range this season. A wild stat.
90s ball back
Raptors and Thunder keeping 90s brickfests in good hands.
Go trade for Ja and make it so we never shoot above 26% from 3 ever again.
Pls no keep Ja away from this team I’m loving our culture 😭
Man id take a crumbl cookie over Immanuel Quickley rn
It’s like you didn’t even read the post. You don’t want any shooters on this team
Finger guns don’t count.

Yeah, I was surprised to not see the usual [Uthayakumar] for a Raptors statistic post
It’s just cuz twitter isn’t allowed anymore and I don’t think she’s on bluesky while J Lew is so OP posted him
she’s active on bluesky https://bsky.app/profile/keerthikau.bsky.social
“The league is being ruined by teams shooting the 3PT”
Raptors: we can do something about that
On a real level though, the 3 Point Revolution has been way more boring than promised. People were saying we were going to see dozens of Steph clones but the reality is we’re seeing average shooters shoot way more. There’s not enough elite shooters to make this era all that amazing. I guess it’s the same for when it was mid-00s midrange ball or 90s post play. There’s always a few elite guys and then everyone else is just doing impressions of them.
1x brooklyn, 2x pacers, 1x magic, 1x 76ers, 1x hawks, 1x hornets for those curious
Some decent teams I guess?
Meh. Sixers are pretty good. Other than that it’s not a strong list
I would argue magic and hawks are decent teams
We stack those bricks to build a win
The worse we shoot, the better our odds of beating you are so watch out!
If they’re anything like the games I’ve watched then they just grab the rebound after multiple misses and finally settle for a two. The amount of times I’ve seen multiple rebounds from jacked 3 point shots by the raptors is stupid.
When you can’t beat defenders off of the dribble and we don’t have a center to set screens it’s our only way to get the ball in the paint lmao
Who needs center when backboard and rim is friend
Pass? Just get the rebound.
Broke: dribble the ball into the paint
Woke: collect offensive bricks to get the ball in a better scoring position
I love CMB but man I think about how much our team would be changed if we landed in the top 3 and got VJ or Harper. Both guys can get inside at will an put downhill pressure in a way we don’t have with RJ out
Well luckily for you, CMB was elite at driving and going down hill in college, he super passive in the NBA for some reason tho.
Game plan for teams: Force the raps to actually make 3s!
This is Raptors basketball
As an OKC fan, I am disgustingly jealous
Saw a stat that we’re like 14-2 when shooting under 30% from 3 this year.
They’ve found the secret formula!
How many of those games were the opponent also shooting below 26% from 3?
Our motto since 2021 has been “If we can’t shoot, then neither will you!”
who were the teams they beat?
As per u/shinypidgeotto, 1x brooklyn, 2x pacers, 1x magic, 1x 76ers, 1x hawks, 1x hornets.
So not the highest quality of opponents.
still a funny stat regardless
Nightmare blunt rotation
Bricking for wins
Keep em coming!!! Picture
