Very interesting analytical exchange during Will Wade’s press conference today over the threes State gives up on defense. TLDR: Wade is totally fine with the threes they’ve given up, but isn’t about to give up the secret sauce on how all the puzzle pieces fit.

The Miami Heat are challenging one of the biggest assumptions in modern basketball defense: “Giving up threes is bad.” But they've flipped the math. Because not all threes are created equal. This season: • Open 3PT% ≈ 40% • Contested 3PT% ≈ 33% That’s a 7% drop in efficiency. And when you look at Miami this is where things get interesting: They give up the 4th most threes in the NBA… …but they’re 2nd in contested 3s. So they’re not trying to eliminate threes. They’re changing the type of threes you get. And it's resulted in the 4th Def Eff in the league. And it goes even deeper: Catch-and-shoot 3s ≈ 36.7% Off-the-dribble 3s ≈ 30% Another 7% swing. They’re not eliminating the three-point line. They’re defending the three-point quality.

Interesting entry point at today's press conference. The evidence is stacking up and arranged to make a great case for the EO, which will not only address mail-in ballots but go full tilt on the corruption "pinball wizard" machine. The "full confines of the law."

Pat Riley admits he has given up full control over almost everything in the Heat organization: “I love the people I work with, they’ve been with me 30 years… All the department heads, I’ve given up control. Which was the hardest thing for me to do. To give up control over almost everything and every decision, everything… I don’t say give up the power because I don’t think I ever had it. I was given a title by Micky as the head coach and president” (Via The Dan Le Batard Show)
