More than 40% of total shots are 3pt attempts for the first time in NBA history

Because of the passing and off ball movement and strategy. Not the excessive 3s

They shoot the same amount of 3s in FIBA. That's where it comes from.

We gotta figure this out:

Are the 3s great when the European leagues do it

Are the 3s bad when the American leagues do it

It's a balancing act like anything else.

People have to understand, however, that just because variance isn't going your way doesn't mean the process isn't sound.
That shouldn't be in dispute (unfortunately it is), but you're going to have people thinking that if you see teams out here going 4-32 from 3pt, yet still jacking that shyt up.

That's not my point. Everything else is what makes fiba/Euroleague exciting. Not the 3s

Everything is 3s for every team. I say move the line back to 27 feet and eliminate the corner 3. Back in the 90s, I only remember 2 guys pulling up for 3s on fast breaks more than others. That was Mark Price and Drazen Petrovich. It was irregular back then. Now it's normal.

How is the process sound if continuing down that path leads to an inferior product. The best 3point shooting team doesn’t always win the chip either. If anything spamming 3s is just lazy offense for most of these teams.
