A 3 is 50% more valuable than a 2 and the transition back to defense is almost always less work. If the rules stay the same old school paint balling is done!
I think the 3 should be abolished. It's part of what's turning basketball into golf.
I know a new scoring system would freak out the fans but I think it would be an improvement if a regular basket was worth 4 and a 3 was worth 5. That way a 3 would only be 25% more valuable.
While I'm on it, I also think the NBA should raise the rim to 11 feet and and award 1 point automatically to a team that's fouled and keep playing without changing possession. So do away with free throws.

I agree, fuck free throws, but 3s are awesome. Steph Curry and the Warriors are an absolute blast to watch, but I doubt they will have much impact on the game in the long run. They may school some folks for another season but things will go back to how there were soon enough and we will all forget it ever happened.
I like your signature btw.

Curry just sank a 32 footer with 0.6 left in OT to win in OKC. He tied the single game record (12) and broke his own single season record of 286.
That was a pretty sick game, I gotta admit it sucked that Durant fouled out so early in OT, if he was in I'm not sure the Warriors would have pulled it off. He was matching Steph with some pretty sick shots all night.

Granted you have to be considered good to consistently get the last shot in the game, but LeBron James is literally one of the worst clutch players in the history of professional basketball. Over the last 10 seasons, he is 5 of 47 in the last 5 seconds to tie or take the lead. That's 10.6%, while the league average for all players is 22.6%.(I recently heard his stats for the last 10 seconds, and I don't recall the exact numbers but the percentage was equally pathetic).
Yes he is heavily guarded, but so are all superstars at crunch time. If this had happened to Larry Bird, he would have slashed his wrists. And Bird has to be asking himself, how could I shoot 1000 practice shots every day of my life and Steph Curry is doing this. While Bird and LeBron play a similar style, Curry shoots so far away from the basket that no one is guarding him. But I guarantee you that 20 or 30 years ago somebody capable would have been 30 feet out there pressuring him. The NBA is the lazy man's game.

It wouldn't matter, if someone stepped up to pressure him he would probably dribble right past their ass.

The Warriers and the Spurs can both end up with perfect home records this year. Golden State can go 9-2, and still set the all time record.
The Western Conference semi-finals is the Championship, and no doubt Steve Kerr is calculating (and probably sweating) what Popovitch is planning for him.
And Lebron is turning into a bigger joke every day, distancing himself from the Cavs on social media. Now he wants to play with this superstar or that superstar. It doesn't matter where you go loser; you're going to be second or third best, because you aren't a winner.

Idk, I don't think it's nothing but 3s more than a bunch of teams tanking on purpose to get 'new talent' when the chances of one of them being a star is incredibly low to begin with and then the motivation is even less when there's nothing but rebuilding in sight. Baseball will stay boring, basketball will build itself back up soon, we're finishing an era of Kobe, prime Lebron, lots of the bigger stars are fading.

So because Curry shoots 3s a lot the entire NBA is now nothing but 3s? 
Stop watching Warriors highlights so much.

Three's are a big part of it. College and pro. Plus the absurd time spent in huddles and shooting fouls. The game is becoming unforgivably in need of reform and this boring poorly structured bullshit has driven me away as well.
