Should the NBA consider moving the 3pt line back?

[UpAndComing]

Please no. It won't stop them from shooting, it'll encourage.

Not really, Steph Curry didn't look all that courageous when he missed those long range half court shots

let defenders do their job
instead of passively lining the perimeter holding hands like a barrel of monkeys

[Reggie]

Nah no need for this. The best shooters already shoot from 30 feet out anyway.

 

[Starboy52]

There's literally only two people that play ball that this benefits.

 

[ISO]

No, that's a bad idea...

NBA defenses have to adapt. I don't know what's going to happen but the league wide defensive rating is WAY up this year. The defensive rating is up to 80's NBA levels. All these big men shooting threes, all the P&R play, and small ball has spread the floor so much. I don't think NBA defenses expected guys like Brook Lopez and Darrell Arthur to be competent three point shooters.

The court needs to be widened

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

Get rid of the corner threes, there's no reason it should be 3 points when it's closer.

Keep the corners as 3s, move the rest of the arc back 5 feet and make it worth 4.

I'd rather raise the rim. Lay ups would be more blocksble. Dunks would be a bit harder and your shot would need some adjusting.

 

[DIMES]

The game is perfect right now. If it ain't broke don't fix it

 

[street heat]

The court needs to be widened

that would make it even harder to defend than it is now....

 

[SadimirPutin]

OF all the things you can do to try and make the game better...THIS is what motherfukkers are focused on?

Yes lets go ahead and find stupid ways to kill the nba product?


JESUS CHRIST

The court was designed for smaller players

Today's players are too long and can barely fit their feet behind the 3 point line on the corners

 

[Ironman]

Stop calling taps as fouls and let defenders be able to be more aggressive

Steph is used to the current 3 point line. The league moves the line back and I'll give it 5 years before players start pulling crazy shots with ease

 

[GiantGonzalez]

They should add a 4pt line,
