They are better shooters than Paxson and Hodges. Put them in todays game and they are fine Hodges is probably playing twice as much as he did with the Bulls.

IMO many players from today could not play the game in the 90’s because of your argument. They would not be able to sit in the corner and wait for a three.

As long as 3 remains 50% more than 2, that type of basketball will not return

They could extend the three point line

Not much room to extend in the corners and this would make it worse. You would

Some folks think removing the corner option is sort of the point.

More spacing makes the game better

Why?

Because made shots are more entertaining than missed shots

Ahhh so that's why soccer sucks!

That’s where you are wrong. Bulls shot 51% in 1991. Warriors led last year at

Players are so much better at shooting the 3 now it has changed the game

Because players realized nobody wants to play perimeter defense anymore.

I'm sure it's that and has nothing to do with the hand-check rule.

High percentage shots and players shoot the three just as good as the mid-range

Your characterizations in the first paragraph are laughable.

Sorry but Popes offensive is closer to the modern game of analytics.

Absolutely. I think they were the best shooting team because they played 5-out.

I’m just confused why some expect Haarms and Harward to both start and play huge

Because there is far more football competency than basketball competency around
