Part 4/7:
The proposal to limit the number of three-point attempts to a specific cap—say 25 per team—has surfaced as a potential remedy to counteract this one-dimensional tendency. This suggestion embodies the sentiment of fans and analysts who yearn for a more dynamic style of play. It emphasizes the need for strategic depth rather than relying heavily on long-range shooting to win games.
While this approach is still speculative, it underlines a bigger concern: the urgency for change in the NBA’s current format. The emphasis on three-point shooting has shifted the focus away from other valuable aspects, such as teamwork, playmaking, and the beauty of footwork that once drew fans to the game.
