Did Atlanta's passing matter more than its hot shooting?

Atlanta's 124-88 win at Los Angeles on Thursday looks like a shooting story first: the Dream made 64% overall and 62% from three. But 35 assists against 14 turnovers is the part I would carry forward, because five starters scored at least nine and the ball was not living with one scorer. The caution is that made shots create assists too, so the passing line can look cleaner on a night when almost everything falls. Would you trust the 35 assists as evidence of repeatable ball movement, or discount them with the 62% night? https://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/basketball/wnba/summary?event=401857160
