Some nights it's hard to tell the difference.
Who came up with those overtime rules? Why not just have the next goal win, if they wanted to get rid of ties?
To tie into our flag football conversation, imagine if NFL OT were a 7 on 7 flag football match.
I actually think NBA OT would be much more improved as a first to 11 game of 1-on-1.
It's true about the 3 point contest. NBA teams were probably underutilizing the 3 for a long time but it seems like the pendulum has swung a bit far in the other direction.

I actually feel like it's been better this season.
For the life of me, I can't understand why guys in the 80's took so many shots with their foot right on the line. Even as kids, we understood the whole 3>2 thing and tried not to shoot while stepping on the line. It would be like if wide receivers didn't even try to get both feet down inbounds.

Derozan used to drive me nuts when he played with the raptors. He would take at least 3 or 4 shots a game that were 1 foot from the 3 point line. Guys aren't guarding you there for a reason. They will give you that shot all day.
