There are more three-pointers now, and there are only going to be more three-pointers in the future. Stephen Curry grew up in the slugged-out 1990s watching his father shoot a whole two-point-nine three-pointers a game and still turned out like this, how do you reckon the kids growing up with Steph will turn out?
They’re already out, earning more points than ever, acquisitions even the surliest of coaches can agree on.
The problem, not for those paid to win games, is the entertainment. The encroaching sameness coupled with the unpleasant overreliance on a weapon that is too potent to ignore, not with teenaged rookies out there flitting wrists like a 29-year old Craig Hodges. I don’t want to be yet another Substacker bringing up the excesses of the Spanish colonial hellscape but inflation or not, boys, you’ve still gotta send that silver back.
