luc mbah moute is shooting .355% from 3. .355% 3PT% from a PF is pretty good.

harden leads the league in 3 pointers made while shooting .365% from 3. cp3 is shooting .379% from 3.

eric gordon is shooting 361% from 3 while taking 9 a game. one thing they wouldn't be lacking is perimeter shooting.

thats more spacing than most teams in the nba can give lebron.
There are 25+ PFs that are shooting better from 3 than Luc and you have to consider that he's not shooting on volume. You have three good shooters, and Harden and CP3 are not elite catch-and-shoot threats. This is not the elite floor spacing needed in the D'Antoni offense and to surround three ball-dominant players

luc doesn't have to shoot on volume. when he's open he's shooting a good percentage from 3.

and cp3 is shooting 40.0% on catch and shoot 3's.

that sounds elite to me.

people used the ball dominate excuse that cp3 and harden wouldn't work and look at them now....

Paul has only taken 65 catch-and-shoot 3s all year, Wall is outshooting him this year and he's certainly not an elite catch-and-shoot guy. 35.5% isn't a good percentage from 3. Two ball-dominant players is one thing, three is even more to the point. The Rockets have been making it work with a lot of staggering and the elite floor spacing at all times.

anything over 35% is a good shooting percentage from 3. if you can hit 3's at at least 35% you are a threat.

ariza and tucker are not elite floor spacers and the rockets set the record for most 3's in a season with those guys playing big minutes and them and anderson are the only perimeter players lost in this lebron to houston scenario.

Ariza is 38% on volume, high volume 40% catch-and-shoot, Tucker is over 37% himself, and Ryan Anderson has insane gravity on the court, some of the best in the league. Mbah a Moute isn't respect out there
