Too many threes? C's hit team-record 19; took 50 total in loss yesterday

For any die-hard NBA fans from years ago who might catch a game here and there nowadays, the amount of three-point shots today has to be absolutely staggering. Even compared to the early to mid-2000's, the game has completely changed as offenses are looking to spread out defenses more through the use of shots from long range.

Although there are still a good amount of teams who will use the low-post and others who will let players attack the rim at will (hi, Kyrie Irving), the three has still become arguably the league's biggest premium right now.
