Just scanning the top 3P% teams, almost no one is in the teens, they're in the 20's.

Sorting by 3PA: tied for #303 on the list is Dayton at 19, meaning almost every other team takes 20 or more per game.
But other than that, yeah, I agree with you.

Let me add, the other teams are going to play D and give up the 3 ball. Sometimes you have to take what's available. Make enough and you win.
