Nalod, nobody is silly enough to propose passing up layups and dunks for 3's. 3's open up layups and layups open up 3's. They need to be a team.

Its all about TS%. Layups, Contested layups and threes, actually. The drawn foul creating the 3 point play opportunity is actually a pretty high TS% play with the added bonus of putting people in foul trouble.

of course but this is all opened up by spreading the floor with 3 point shooters.

I included threes in my TS%. Take away the midrange and long 2s. Leave the drives, layups and threes.

You know I gonna spin wit it

We know that, the big men in AAU that pass up a layup to dribble out and brick a 3 dont know that.

You still need the mid range shot to keep the defense honest, but it should not be a focus.

If they installed a 4 pt line then they might as well hand the Warriors the chip for the next 5 yrs.
