– Highest eFG% (80.8%)

– Highest TS% (82.6%)

– Highest 3PT% with 20+ 3PA (64.7%) (edit: 20+ 3PM not 3PA)

Brown, Vuc, and Pritchard: 78 points on ²⁷⁄₃₇ from the floor, ¹¹⁄₁₂ from deep.

Pretty good.

Not sure who Dick Lipe is, but the TS% is wrong I think (should be 82.3%, so second highest all time), and there are many teams with higher than 64.7% 3pt with 20+ attempts (via statmuse). The eFG% record is cool though :)

I think the stat is supposed to be 20 3’s made, not attempted. In his tweet he phrases it as “Highest 3 PT PCT with more than 20 3’s (.647)”. He’s a statistician for NBS Sports Boston so he could be wrong but from a quick search I couldn’t find a state to disprove it.

So this is very interesting. when estimating TS% for this game the TS% is 82.3. But, according to AI the official formula for TS% does not use .44 as an estimate for and ones but instead uses the actual amount of possessions resulting in ft trips. on a 3 shot foul the amount of trips counts as 1.5 possessions. and 1s count as 0 possessions. normal 2 shot foul counts as 1.0 possessions.

Answer By using the official play-by-play data of 148 points on 89.5 actual shooting possessions, the Boston Celtics’ True Shooting Percentage for the game is 82.6%.

and the math does check out its 148 / 2(78 + 11.5) 78 being total shot attempts and 11.5 being total possessions resulting in fta. i didnt know this is how actual TS% was calculated so TIL. note that i didnt verify that there were 10 normal 2 shot fouls and 1 3 shot foul in the game.

One more make and they’d have been better off taking the 3 than a completely uncontested dunk.

Nets took 10 more shots and lost by 37. Utterly ridiculous shooting night for just about every single guy on the roster. Got to the point where commentary + crowd was genuinely disappointed with every miss in garbage time (and the deep bench was still knocking down 3s at a decent clip)

Good one man, you mortgaged your future for a role player who got benched for Landry Shamet and still aren’t a contender btw
