What happened to the "high percentage shot" in basketball?

Is the motto for basketball now "pick and roll at the top of the key...shoot the 3?"
Why don't teams feed their big men, let them back down and dominate their respective player more often?
With the exception of Kentucky, I don't see very many other teams do this.

You mean like FTs? They died in the 80s.

Street ball. Had a stretch where we couldn't compete internationally because those teams just beat us over the head with fundamentals.

That would require ua to have an offensive gameplan.

Layups and 3's are the most efficient shots in basketball.

Because college basketball rules are fricking dumb and allow you park someone on defense in the paint for 35 seconds.
Plus it is a really inefficient way of running an offense if you don't have guy who is really good at it.
