Arizona's team 3 point percentage this year is 39.7 and their 2 point percentage is 51. If you make that 50% shot you still only have another 50% chance to win the game in OT. So it's essentially a 25% to 39.7% chance. Also, I always found 3's easier to offensive rebound.

In summary, I think the guy court-side got it right.
