Rockets' 3-point shooting slightly off through 3 playoff games
OKLAHOMA CITY - As with the regular season, the Rockets have through three games been second in the NBA in scoring, averaging 115.3 points per game, just .2 behind the Golden State Warriors. But their 3-point shooting has been well off their regular-season standard.
The Rockets have made just 32 percent of their 3s, averaging 10.3 per game. In the regular season, the Rockets made 35.7 percent, averaging a league-record 14.4 3-pointers per game.
The Thunder have made a consistent effort to close out on Rockets shooters, but coming off a 10 of 35 3-point shooting game on Friday, the Rockets said they are getting enough of their usual looks.
