I hope everyone realizes how self-defeating this approach is.
Ya see, when you rely too much on threes, the laws of probability exist and will become apparent, even if on a crazy streak it will balance out in the long run. Timing is what's needed.
With the game in the balance, and points are needed, a team of players who primarily were living by the three, have no answers; no other options, at least not some that they were hot with...
it's during these times, when baskets are needed, game in the balance, that it should be evident that the WRONG approach was used.
Play the game they way it's supposed to be played. Make the other team beat you; don't put YOURSELF behind the eight ball and be forced to battle the enemy as well as yourself.
