In Defense of the Deep Two: My Favorite Open Shot

[Ed. Note: This is the TAI debut of Lucas Hubbard (@LucasHubbard1), an NBA fan and Duke grad from Maine who is now living in the D.C. area. He’s been a Warriors fan since 2009, but we shall accept him here, as the Washington Wizards are his East Coast darling. Today, Lucas breaks out his shield to defend attacks on long 2-pointers. Enjoy.]
