From my vantage point on the sideline it's not entirely clear which of our players - other than Brown - is likely to be more successful jacking up 3's...

The point is to eliminate midrange jumpers, or come as close as you can, unless you're named Dirk Nowitzki or Steve Nash or something. Basically, if you think, "I'm a good midrange jumpshooter," really you should be shooting threes.

(Of course, Randle's also a fine shooter from outside. But even granting your point, if the team only has one trustworthy three point shooter, that is an awful indictment of coaching evaluation, recruitment, and skills-building.)
