A look at where the Celtics rank in 3-point shooting might surprise you

3-Point Shooting By Team. Hello, Utah. pic.twitter.com/xGzpP8CwKZ

Calling all stat nerds! Please report to the comments section and dissect this graph. My novice eyes tell me that the the Celtics are in the top 30% or so of the league in 3-point percentage, but yet only six teams attempt less 3's than Boston does. So that begs the question, should the Celtics be shooting more 3-pointers... or is the reason why the team is shooting the 3 ball at a high percentage because they are more discriminate of when to launch it?

A little bit of a chicken or the egg question.
