NBA needs to push the line back, don’t think we are at that point in college yet.

Recruiting actual basketball players instead of the tallest great athletes would help more.

Ok
Cool


I grew up when basketball was basketball

Do you even know why they came up with the three point shot?

They just need to make the 3 point line follow its natural path instead of shortening it in the corners. Eliminating the corner three would improve the game drastically.

People will scoff at this but it would single handedly fix the 3 point contest the game has become in the last decade. Especially the NBA

All it would do is eliminate the 3 white guys left that actually play basketball….if certain people ever realize this the 3 pt shot is most definitely gone.

Personally, I could use more commercials and timeouts.

I’m not a student of the game

Not sure what you are saying


But watch documentaries about Lakers vs Celtics

During the Bird / Magic years


You will understand what real basketball is

My son even loved watching it

Because it was becoming a game of dunks. Needed to expand the court, too congested in the paint.
