The three-point shot has transformed basketball—but are teams actually using it the right way? In this episode, TJ and Sam dig into the analytics behind the 3, why only a handful of college teams shoot 40% from deep, and how chasing threes the wrong way can hurt your offense. They break down the importance of rim pressure, inside-out threes, and understanding your team’s ideal three-point rate. You’ll also hear how elite offenses create quality looks, how defensive philosophies influence three-point success, and why role clarity matters for shooters. If you’re a coach trying to build a smarter offense in today’s game, this conversation will challenge how you think about the three. Show Notes Why coaches must identify the role of 3s in their offense. The math behind 33% from three equaling 50% from two. Why not all threes are created equal. The importance of rim pressure for creating quality threes. Understanding and managing your team’s three-point rate. How shooters create spacing and “gravity” for the offense. Shot creation vs. simply shooting more threes. Defensive choices: protect the rim or defend the arc. Developing shooters and defining roles within your offense. Send us a Message.
