True....

33.5% on 100 shots from 3 = 100.5 pts

50% on 100 shots from 2 = 100 pts

You can be "meh" on 3's and still be better than an actually good shooter who lives inside the arc.

AND THATS JUST UGLY
fukkING BASKETBALL...

REGARDLESS OF WHAT ANALYTICS SAYS
NO ONE WANTS TO WATCH A TEAM
MISS 67% OF THEIR SHOTS
EVEN IF IT RESULTS IN MORE PTS.

i'm a spurs fan, but for years the media convinced everyone that spurs basketall was "boring". I remember 2 Chains being on ESPN with stephen A smith talking about how boring the spurs were because we were a passing/jump shooting team. A few years after that the Warriors became popular by doing nothing but shooting 3s and playing like we had been the entire time and THEN jump shooting became "exciting'. :russ:

3 point shooting would NOT be a effective if the league starts enforcing moving screens. Right now, the Warriors will commit no less than 25 moving screen violations each game, but maybe 1 or 2 are ever called. It is impossible to guard 3 point shooting when you're allowed to grab a defender move him with you, stick your hip out or just straight up block him like you're protecting a qb. The league knows this and it's bullshyt.

As a hooper myself who's always thrived in the mid range, it kills me to see teams pass up wide open middy's to force 3's :francis:
