NBA ‘20-‘21 Offseason

Bring on the freaks, you nerds.

Athletic freaks are fun. a 23'9" inch shot just isn't that freakish though?

 

Wider court with a longer 3 line. Put back hand checks to give the D a little extra leeway since spacing is going to be spread out more. Shorten the shot clock by a couple seconds to ensure pace stays quick?

 

At the very least the NBA now has a great testing field in the G League to just experiment with stuff like this.

 

How about...

The NBA has become the Godless Chucking league that Sulley warned us about

If people want less 3's, the most obvious solution that will never happen is to make them worth 2 1/2. That would make 3 point shots and midrange shots much closer in overall value and open up other spots on the court.

 

The main problem I have with dealing with 3's is that right now the best things you can get are shooting fouls and 3's. If you take away the value of 3's, my worry is that basketball is going to turn into a lot of players crashing into players looking for calls.

 

As for players teaming up, that's a much thornier problem. I don't think the 1 uncapped player idea would work because small market teams already have an issue spending all the money they are allowed to because of the way that revenue is split in the NBA. There are other solutions out there, but they are all kind of farfetched (3 players can only take up a certain percentage of the cap combined for example).

Can both teams lose a trade?

Can both teams lose a trade?

Yes.

Only makes sense if Harden is going and either Beal or Westbrook are going from Washington.

Giannis re-signing with the bucks is pretty dang cool imo

Okay so now it's the Leonard and Oladipo sweepstakes for 2021 free agency?
