The Chicago Bulls beat the Golden State Warriors 125–122 in a fun game that made their trip out west 3-0. Let's talk about these two things from the match.

Any team that goes up against the Warriors in a three-point shootout is taking a huge risk, but the Bulls showed they were ready for it. With 16 out of 36 shots, they made an impressive 44% from beyond the arc.

They made 16 of 36 shots from beyond the arc, which is an outstanding 44 percent shooting percentage. In a surprising turn of events, Nikola Vucevic and DeMar DeRozan each led the Bulls with three triples between them.

While the Warriors missed 11 of 42 three-point shots, the other team did well. Curry's hitting was bad; he only made three of his 12 long-range shots before getting hurt and having to leave the game.
