Through their first seven games of the season, the Indiana Pacers shot 30.1% on wide-open three-point field goal attempts, according to NBA.com. This ranks as second-worst in the NBA, only ahead of the Dallas Mavericks, who are shooting 27% on wide-open threes.
But what does this mean exactly?
Even though the Pacers' offense currently looks like a shell of its past self (which was always expected to be the case at least until Tyrese Haliburton returns from his Achilles injury), they are still generating good looks. They're just not making them.
The biggest takeaway of Indiana's offense so far is that its identity hasn't changed.
