    Would Golden State be considered a good jump shooting team in the sense of taking a good shot, or is it just that they are ridiculously good at making good or bad shots?

      Have you looked at, or taken into consideration, the shot distribution? Eg. is there a difference between how many shots a team takes from outside a certain distance vs inside a certain distance? Maybe compare that stat vs. regular season tendencies?

      Like others have said here; it's not that jumpshots themselves are bad, but what type of shots are they and how many are taken that is important too.

        Right, because recent champions like the Heat, Celtics, and Lakers were full of modest, humble wallflowers.

            High five for the effort, but unfortunately very limited in terms of usefulness. Unfortunately, I think it's virtually impossible, to draw meaningful conclusions unless your working with play tracking data, which we don't really have access to.
