Which team will bounce back from 3?

In Game 1, both teams were absolutely putrid from 3-point range. The Philadelphia 76ers shot just 18 percent from 3 and the Miami Heat shot 25 percent. I don’t think you can expect both teams to have the same type of performance from deep.

Both teams actually got relatively good looks in Game 1. The Heat was the best 3-point shooting team in the regular season and the Sixers were the seventh-best, percentage-wise. I think it’s safe to say that at least one of these teams bounces back from 3 in Game 2.

The big question is which one it will be? I think the answer to that question might end up winning the game and taking momentum to Game 3 in Philly.
