Message: [QUOTE="Bigboote, post: 3966922, member: 7631"] This isn't aimed at your post, just a general remark. I wish they'd give the dimensions in metric (at least in addition to the English dimensions). The new 3-pt distance wasn't arrived at from wanting to pick some weird distance like 22' 1-3/4 -- it's 6.75 m/675 cm. The high-school distance of 19' 9" is English as is the American free-throw line at 15'. The international FT line is at 4.6 m; about an inch long of the American distance. We need to start using metric somewhere besides engine displacements -- might's well be where there's some passion, like sports. [/rant mode] [/QUOTE]
