The Celtics were often taking half of their shots from 3 during their recent championship season. The change is more about everyone on the roster shooting league average and taking a lot of shots as a team, the league average itself is basically unchanged since 2006-2007.

Yeah, they had 2 generational shooters (Steph and Klay shooting well over 40%), but they also had lots of all-shooter lineups. The rockets took it further with the notion that 3s and layups/dunks were the highest expected value shots, so they were the only ones worth taking

Sprawlball is a fun read about how much the game changed over the course of the 2010s that goes over this much better than I could

A scoring revolution hit about ten years ago, and it's expanded from a few teams to the league in general over the past 5-ish years? Streakiness from 3 combined with increased 3-point shooting also means a good night can be 140+

Honestly if I had to have a high stress, high workload job that would consume my life, I'd like it to be in the middle of nowhere near a nice national park because that's the only place I'd be able to healthily decompress

It's mind blowing to me that they paid as much attention to the sound system for their live musicians as they did to bikes, I know they don't like bikes but I thought they did like the audio at their premier event

It's pretty inconvenient to detour multiple blocks each way on the first Thursday :( and maybe this money also means they can figure out a sound system that doesn't sound like hot garbage b/c their setup for the August one was disgusting
