Would you be in favor of raising the basketball hoop to 11'?

No, I would need a taller ladder to be able to dunk.

It would take a whole new level of muscle memory practice

They could just move it up 1/2 inch per year for the next 24 years. Problem solved.

They used to raise their admission price fifty cents a year.

Gotcha. I wasn't thinking back that far.

Yes. Would decrease the number of times I hit my head on the rim when dunking.

I cut my chin up pretty good coming down on the rim yesterday.

I would prefer a 4 point line, at a similar distance to Lillard's shot yesterday

That would only be fair for the Trailblazers. Ha. Could you imagine though...

It would be fun. Just a straight line across a few feet in front of half court

Why? What problem is it solving? I think that the game is fine now

NBA is all 3pts and dunks.

I agree that the shot distribution has skewed dramatically towards

The only way to change this is to get rid of the corner 3 and make the 3 point

Leave the basket, move the 3 further back, make the cylinder a divider between 1

Allow goal tending on 3 pointers

You want to get rid of 3 pointers and dunks?

I believe they should adjust NBA and NCAA to 10'6" for few years then consider..

not much would change once players adjusted, other than less dunks

Lower it a foot instead. Make it more equal for all.

Much less scoring. Could have some single digit scores & 10-20 minute shutouts.

Not sure it would make much difference on shooting %. They likely would adjust faster than one might expect.

my only concern is what would happen to all of the great dunkers out there

So turn the NBA into the WNBA?? As in very few dunks. Everything below the rim.

No..lower to 9.5 feet. Stop giving advantages to anatomically abnormal giants..
