    That's the NBA record for most 3s scored in a season, by Steph Curry at the 2012/13 regular season.

    Ariza is averaging more than 4 per game as of today. He has a legit chance of breaking a new record staying healthy. He just likes the three and has ton of easy shots playing next to H&H; pronably he's gonna be surrounding the 40% area. So we'll see.

    With the way Harden is dishing and dealing it's certainly possible

    Ariza is relatively easy to guard because he can't shoot off the dribble. If he continues to be deadly, teams will run him off the line and his 3-point attempts will decline.

    Very little chance of him breaking the record IMO.

    So Harden gets uncontested layups, and they get slaughtered anyway.
    I imagine most teams would rather protect the paint than the 3?

    Plus, he just spots up in transition and drains them anyway - you can't really guard those ones effectively.

    I'm loving the Ariza show, but highly unlikely... I'd love to be wrong but yeah, teams will adjust.
