Could you imagine this team’s record without it? I was hoping the extended line would help but it hasn’t.

Basketball should be about getting to the rim; dirty points in the paint and old-fashioned 3’s.

I’d love to see college basketball do away with the 3 altogether. Like it was for most of history.

Just to be clear, you understand there’s no possibility of this happening right?

3’s are an anomaly of the game’s history.

Do you think that sounds intelligent or are you just wasted?

He's just upset that we can't hit 3's and other teams can. So the solution is to just get rid of them

Don't eliminate it, bring back the short three point line for college ball.

So I suppose you'd also like to eliminate slam dunks?

Make a layup off an assist worth 3 pts. It would encourage passing and running plays.

Idk if you’re being sarcastic but i actually really like adding assists to points. I just want to reward teams more for going inside.

If you shoot a trey well you will win a basketball game. That's a trend in today basketball games and will be in the Dance next month. No need to eliminate it.

Yeah, get rid of the dunk also and while we're at it, lets just go back to starting five white guys too.

Dunking was once against the rules too. I’d rather that be taken back out before the 3 point shot.

So you wanna watch a basketball that has 50 plus fouls called and about 70 free throw shots

Just go watch women's basketball if you don't want to see dunking.

Sorry I don’t think you should get an extra point for long shots.

Working inside often takes much more effort than jacking a 3.
