Amazing NBA Box Score (Matty B)

Wow. I was just going through the Sacramento Kings box score from their March 2nd game at home against the Miami Heat. These two teams put-up amazing shooting numbers…the most impressive shooting performance I’ve seen in the NBA in quite some time.

Miami: scored 109 points on 56.3% (40-71) shooting from the floor. They shot 45.8% from 3-point land (11-24), and hit 18 of their 21 free throws for 85.7%.

Sacramento: scored 120 points on 56.2% (41-73) shooting from the floor. They shot and eye-popping 70.6% from 3-point land (12-17), and hit 26 of their 30 free throws for 86.7%.

The most impressive thing about those numbers is the fact that the Kings and Heat only combined to have about 185 possessions for the entire game.

This game has to be one of the best all-around shooting efforts in the NBA in a long, long time.

I think we can expect regression from both teams in their next games. Sacramento hosts the Lakers tonight, and Miami plays Wednesday at home against Toronto.
