Are Marcus Smart & Aron Baynes' combined 36% on 3-pointers in Game 1 a fluke?

Yes, the math is correct. In Game One versus the Philadelphia 76'ers, Marcus Smart and Aron Baynes shot a combined 4-of-11 from beyond the arc for a 36.4% rate.

Smart shot 2-of-8 on threes, and at least one of my readers got a boot out of me writing that this may be an indicator that his shot is coming around. I was only partially jesting when I wrote it, knowing that a thumb injury and surgery doesn't usually turn a bad shooter into Steph Curry.
