The top 5 teams in 3 point percentage are the Clippers, Bucks, Nets, Jazz, and Nuggets.

Fact. It's not the Mavs. It's the league. The teams who don't take many are bad and the teams that make them at a low rate tend to be bottom of the barrel (Cavs, Rockets, Heat, Wiz, Wolves, Thunder, Magic)
The three is the new NBA and it means that any team that gets hot can demolish any team in the league. It also means that a team that has a cold night will see much larger negative swings.
