There's a lot of talk on this board all season about playing 2 bigs or you can't play 2 bigs anymore because of 5 out and offenses being dominated by small ball three point shooting...
Curry and the Warriors were incredibly exciting to watch and Steph and the team changed the game but we seem to be at a breaking point. More and more talk about the game now being totally out of whack with the over reliance on three pointer. I think it's gotten to the point that the game is losing fans, it no longer looks like the game anyone grew up with and the game has totally lost it's balance.
I would imagine the NBA is currently having meetings on what they can do to bring the game back to the way it was intended instead of the three point contest it's become. The question is what do you do and how drastic do you make the changes? Should you still get a full extra point more for a three than any other basket? Do you move the line back? Don't think that changes much because people already pull up from so far out. Do you get rid of corner threes where teams now just camp out a guy on each wing the entire game?
