Game 290 - Denver Nuggets at Atlanta Hawks
February 8 at Philips Arena in Atlanta, GA
Fox Sports Southeast
Basketball, especially at the professional level, is a fast game and sometimes what you remember seeing isn't always reflected in the final box score. That was not the case on Wednesday. What I saw was Denver chucking up an insane amount of 3-pointers and not making nearly enough and as we check the final statistics it looks like the Nuggets were a horrid 13-for-44 from three-point range*.
To be fair to the rest of the team, Will Barton by himself was 0-for-9 from behind the arc. Barton actually had a nice night aside from that, contributing seven assists and one turnover in 38 minutes, but the Hawks were a bit too much in a 117-106 win.
Denver, which lost for the fifth consecutive time at Philips, got to within 109-105 on a Barton-assisted Gary Harris dunk, but scored just one more point over the final three minutes.
The hosts had seven in double figures, led by Dennis Schroder's 24-point, 10-assist night.
* I checked basketball-reference.com's play index to see how often teams have attempted 44 or more threes in a game in 2016-17 and Houston has done it a ridiculous 13 times while the remainder of the league, which now includes Denver, has reached that mark a combined 10 times. Also interesting is that both Houston (38-17) and Denver (23-29) ended the evening with identical 36.3 percent shooting from three.
