Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
Jazz FG%: 44.1
Jazz opponents FG%: 43.6
76ers FG%: 40.1
76ers opponents FG%: 44.2
FG%=Field Goal Percentage
Once again, the 76ers rank second to last in the NBA in an offensive category. They struggle to make shots. The Jazz are in the middle of the league, with a shooting percentage that's ranked No. 13 in the NBA.
As bad as Philadelphia's shooting is, its defense doesn't make up for it. Only 10 teams in the NBA all opposing teams to shoot a higher percentage from the field. Most of those teams don't celebrate winning after each game.
