There was no 3 point line so spacing guys way out was of zero value prior to that.

Who is talking about 1979 and the 80s?

The spacing only began to take advantage of the new 3 point line

In the 80s?

Are you taking about 95-97 when they moved it up? In the 98 season, they moved it back to its original position (where it remains today).

You think the late 90s/early 00s NBA took advantage of the 3 point shot?

What I heard was they moved it back because too many bad shooters were taking 3s
