Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 1734549, member: 767"] I said this before, but the 3 point line being nearly 2 feet shorter helped the Bulls shoot 40% from 3. Plus taking much fewer shots from deep. But we're talking about 2 of the greatest teams of all time. They're both pretty much awesome at everything. It's kind of crazy the Bulls had a slightly better offensive efficiency than the Warriors, despite relying a lot less on the 3, which you'd think all else being equal, would increase offense. If you look at the four factors of offense, (Effective FG%, TO%, OR%, and FT/FG) this is how they ranked Bulls (in order from above) 4th, 1st, 1st, 26th Warriors 1st, 20th, 20th, 25th So they were both about the same at drawing fouls (not very good) but the Bulls protected the ball and crushed the offensive glass. The Warriors are only above average at one of the 4, but A) it's the most important one, and B) they're miles ahead of everyone else. [/QUOTE]
