76ers quietly wasting one of their biggest hidden strengths this season

Offense has been the name for the game so far for the Philadelphia 76ers this season. Their 5-3 start, which is actually a fruit of their ongoing gloomy stretch, is still a relative success early on, and it is their mighty scoring attack that has allowed them to have a winning record through their first eight games.

A big feature of their second-ranked offense is their impressive uptick as a three-point shooting bunch. After being one of the more inferior teams in the league on that end last season, the 76ers now rank fourth in three-point shooting percentage with a lofty 40 percent clip from downtown.
