Curry for 3, BANG!!! TIE GAME... no! The score is saying it's only worth two. Warriors down one out of time, and the game's over!

You’re absolutely right

Maybe the team with the higher percentage going into the fourth starts the quarter in the bonus and let them play it out with no stipulations.

Doing this won't really fix the ratings issue imo

Maybe very short term but it'll fall again

The NBA needs to stop listening to casuals.


If y'all don't like the game go watch something else. Go watch soccer


Leave us alone so we can enjoy the game.



Could've swore listening to casuals got hand checking removed and opened up the floor for offenses to flourish, cause casuals love scoring


Y'all ain't never happy just leave us diehards who actually spend money and go to the games alone.


IDGAF about tv ratings, if anything these huge tv contracts lead to huge player contracts and surprise, we pay for those salaries through abnormally high ticket prices.


We good, go watch Fifa

Let's be real, nothing regarding threes will be a good idea for y'all til Curry retires, because you don't want him going out the league with players welcoming him to shoot from wherever knowing it won't be worth 3.

Funny thing is, they love scoring, but in sports where scoring is harder and less frequent it feels way more exciting. That's why soccer and football is so big cause every score is a dagger.

I feel like the way they're scoring in the nba now with the 3's and layups, it's so fast people don't even really comprehend what they're seeing and the game just flies by. People talk about 90's 00's nba like it was trash but honestly it was extremely exciting, easier to appreciate both sides of the floor. And I also feel like the nba community was better too. Era was more masculine so the shyt talk kinda just felt like that. But these days it seems like all the fans do is insult each other all day about which era they like

It would force teams to go with their bread & butter and leave three point shooting to the specialists (not in the Craig Hodges way but the guys who are best equipped

If you start a quarter going 0-5 behind the arc that you instantly have to recalibrate your approach on the fly and focus on the best possible available shot versus a 3

While I do respect your opinion, you say people can't comprehend what they're seeing and the game just flies by.

Maybe these people should watch golf, soccer, football or baseball

That kind of thinking is what turned hip hop from an art form to mumble rap, cause simple minded individuals had trouble grasping the different kinds of flows from various rappers, they needed it broken down slowly so they could understand

The game has advanced and I enjoy it, I'm kinda not understanding how the players becoming more skilled and gaining range in their 3 point shooting abilities has lead people to say it's not fun to watch


Maybe they just don't like basketball


I'm not fond of players getting 40+million dollar a year contracts and sitting out games. They sitting out cause they contracts are guaranteed, they need to be paid per game played.

Game loses some casual viewers and we get lower ticket prices I'm fine with that.

so are you in favor of not paying anyone who doesn't play?
No.

If u do not play do to DNP-CD u get paid

If u sitting out cause it's the second night of a back to back and u need rest, that's fine but u don't get paid for that game.

what difference does it make? Would you really feel better if Pop was like "I didn't feel like playing Wemby tonight." The result is the same.
