The end of the western conference was fun to watch. Okc, Dallas and Minnesota were playing really good defense. Yesterday’s game 2 was pretty fun. It’s weird because it’s pretty cool to see porzingis and Luka go flat out unconscious. But at the same time it makes for boring end of game basketball when it ends in blowout

Moving the 3 point line is food for thought. The nba has a major blowout problem and 3 pointers are a big part of it. I doubt it will happen but it’s not the worst idea. Easily the two biggest things the nba needs to figure out are blowouts and load management/injuries.

To prevent the NBA from becoming a game where both teams are taking 50 threes a game every game with mediocre shooters (which is an inevitability after all teams fully adopt the analytic approach). I find enjoying that style weird and think more variety offensively is far more interesting to watch.

I think we are many years away from the NBA even looking at this as a problem though (if they ever do). Most fans still seem to like the constant barrage of threes (despite the blowouts it leads to) but they may not as much when every team plays exactly the same style. |

When the 3PT line was added, though, it was an era when few players/teams could take advantage of it and it was a far more difficult shot for the average NBA player. It definitely wasn’t envisioned that it would become what it has become. |
