Ok disastrous was quite the overstatement. It probably was a "disastrous" word choice. 
But that being said, the numbers support my general opinion. College hoops has a lower % than the NBA. I think that shows that people to overboard with the hate for it in college.
And while not "disastrous", I think moving the college line to where the NBA has would just likely get that much lower.

i really just meant which aspect would be affected more than calling you out for possible exaggeration

i think the rate wouldn't go down as badly b/c it would stop teams from relying on the 3 ball and only the good shooters would shoot them in high volume

my main point is cbb shoots a lower % than the NBA.
34% isn't some really high number. It's actually not a bad number at all, plenty realistic and not overdone IMO.
So I guess I don't see the need to extend it.

I think shel was right on disastrous. I don't think teams would take less three-pointers, they would just shoot them at a much lower percentage, depressing scoring. The return of games in the 40s with dismal shooting is not my idea of appetizing basketball.

so i take it you're not watching LSU this year correct?
Posted on 2/10/11 at 8:46 am to LSUROCKS52
No. I can't bring myself to do it. I watch about 10 minutes before Mrs. Baloo looks at me and says, "really?" And I have no response.
God, we suck.
God, we suck.

the amount of division I college teams >>>> amount of NBA teams
so 34% is rather high

Don't give me this "everyone loves an underdog" bs the tourney in which George Mason got to the final 4 was putrid.
None of those final 4 games were close. Why is that one teams fault?

Should college 3 pt line be moved back
to the NBA standard? I think so, it would mean fewer "cinderella" mid-major teams
Yeah right...a good high school three point shooter can hit bombs from NBA range let alone a good college three point shooter...I'm not opposed to moving the line back but it has nothing to do with eliminating cinderella teamsPosted on 2/10/11 at 3:30 pm to Baloo

How? It is an average.
Do you want the average to be 30% or lower?
