    Yes we do. Whether you like it or not, in this league, the refs can really F* up any outcome of any game.

    All of the above and the importance of two point fgs in the playoffs. Most of the analytics go out the window after the regular season when the refs swallow whistles.

    What would it be like if a game is not whistled at all.

    I asked for 6'6" to 6'9":Wings and Patrick Fertitta brought me a bunch of 6'3" players.
    Westbrook 6'3" - Austin Rivers 6'3" - McLemore 6'3" - Harden 6'4" - Tucker 6'5"/ **

    **traded Capela out for Covington 6'7" addition

    Eric Gordon 6'3"
    Chris Clemons 5'9"
    Daniel House 6'6"

    With Harden, Westbrook, John Wall contracts getting higher and higher each year the window closed.

    D'Antoni didn't make things easier by saying, what's one or two inches of height?

    Well guards grow up being told to shoot and pass......forwards and centers grow up learning to
    box out, rebound, post up. You don't move guards to forwards and expect them to out rebound
    and box out bigger players that have been taught those skills half their life.

    My model is wings with size that can halfway defend Centers while also halfway defend
    point guards. Switch everything defensively. Patrick Fertitta wanted every player on the court
    passing by putting nothing but guards out there. The future is everyone on the court getting
    rebounds, willing passers, while have ability to shoot 3's.....run the full court like banshees to
    play the numbers game.

    Like having a Center run hard and beat the other Center down court for easy rim runs.....
    everyone out runs the opposing Center to get either an easy rim run or open 3.
    _____________

    Adam Silver has admitted that adding a 4-pt line or area has been brought up
    to the rules and regulations committee for several years now.

    If you think the NBA likes high scoring games like , say All Star games
    of each team getting 200 points .......

    4-point shots may be on the horizon. Maybe sooner than later.

    *side note: Jamal Murray -Jokic works because Jokic can shoot 3's (respectfully).....
    until Sengun shoots 3's and is respected.....there is no deplication here.

    Jalen-Sengun only gives you high PnR set at the 3-pt line. Green outrunning both defenders
    to the hoop. Don't start thinking that's a winner every game. Sengun has to make 3's any way
    you turn it to be successful.
