While those moves are certainly helpful, a quick look at last season\u2019s numbers make it clear exactly where the Nets must take a leap if they want to be in the postseason picture. Considering the direction of the modern NBA, it should be no surprise that Brooklyn\u2019s most pressing need is better 3-point shooting.<\/p>\n
Last season, the Nets <\/a>were tied for the worst 3-point percentage in the league, knocking down only 34% of their shots from that range. Going hand-in-hand, the Nets also finished with the worst offense in the league.<\/p>\n While it certainly helps to have another couple of playmakers in Randle and Brown, the Nets will need their personnel to knock down shots at a higher clip. With such a young group, there are still many players trying to fully adjust to the NBA 3-point line, and improvement should come with time.<\/p>\n Perhaps the most interesting piece of Brooklyn\u2019s league-worst 3-point percentage is that they were far from the bottom of the league in attempts. With coach Jordi Fernandez continuing to pour confidence in his team last season, the Nets finished 11th in 3-point attempts, tallying 38.4 a night.<\/p>\n
