In contrast to last season's 32.8% clip, Dean Wade's three-point effectiveness has regressed this season to 26.0%.With respect to three-point shots, the Cleveland Cavaliers's lackluster 11.1 made threes per game ranks 5th-weakest in the NBA this year.The matchup against Boston is a hard one for threes; when the Celtics are on their home court, the opposition's starting PFs have compiled the 9th-lowest three percentage in the league this year (29.7%).The Cavaliers have played at the 5th-slowest pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 5 games as the away team.The Celtics have played at the 6th-slowest tempo in the NBA over the last 15 games away from their home stadium, which should decrease opportunities for the Cavaliers.
