About time I say. If there was one thing that irked me was teams with no mid or post play, just a bunch of guys tossing up 3s every game. xnodx

Good news, I like the Three, but it's too close for college men.

Agreed - the line was way too close - for some players it was like taking candy from a baby.

Half those guys are bombing well beyond the current line anyway

Bout time.
Seperate the LONG Range shooters from the Mid-Range shooters.xthumbsupx

The college 3 pointer was nothing more than a short juimp shot where it was.xlolx

I think it's a good idea. But watching Ohio State brick shot after shot in the title game, they may want to play their games with the line the way it is......xlolx

Conley has a good shot at being picked high.

I still think it is too close.
Move it to the pro line, 23'9".

Gotta have some "difference" in the pro and amature game.
Just as long as it's moved back from where it is now.xnodx

Agreed, too easy a distance to be given a bonus. Should cause more working the ball into the paint rather than a perimeter game.

I like to see players raining jumpers as much as the next person.xnodx

But I get sick of seeing 3 or 4 players posted up behing the 3 point line waiting for the ball.xlolx

That's the biggest problem with the college game...most guys that shoot the three can't hit it because no one really cares about pure shooting anymore.

I like it moving back a ft. The pro line is too deep for the college kids. I wonder if High School and International will adopt the 20'9"
