13-11-2008 10:09
Defending champion CSKA Moscow put on the best three-point show in the Euroleague this decade on Wednesday as it opened the fourth week of the regular season with a 90-68 blowout win over visiting Efes Pilsen in the Russian capital. CSKA not only tied the existing record for three-pointers made in one game, 18, but did so with more efficiency.
The record that CSKA tied was 18-for-34 shooting from the arc by Lottomatica Roma playing at Pau-Orthez on December 18, 2003. CSKA shattered Roma's accuracy rate, however, by making 18 of 25 - or 72% - on Wednesday before its gleeful home fans. Trajan Langdon and Terence Morris both hit 5 of their 7 three-point attempts against Efes, while Ramunas Siskauskas was 4 for 4 from downtown.
Amazingly, CSKA shot even better, 20 for 28, on three-pointers in a domestic Russian Cup game last weekend.
With the victory over Efes, CSKA raised its record to 4-0 for a lock on first place in Group D of the Euroleague regular season.
