wiscotitansfan Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 My friends and I were joking about how the Gasol's are going to run away with this simply because they are big guys who can shoot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmeade- Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 I think it's cool. 3 vs 3 has a whole different dynamic than 5 on 5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to having different distances and strokes in swimming in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if players will only be able to compete in one or the other due to team activities or whatever it would be awful.... But I doubt that will be the case since they care about ratings just as much as the next company Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll watch a 3 on 3 with LeBron, Curry, and Durant dominating. Just an example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharrdWood Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Personally, I love 3s because it's more open and allows for even more creativity, especially if you play with the same guys on a regular basis. Even not it's fun to try to read your new teammates. That said, having pros play 3s...I dunno, just seems like it'll be that the first team to get the ball will win. Defending that sort of space with only 3 guys against elite athletes is impossible, unless you have a dominant shot-blocking center that can just hang around the hoop. Unless they can absolutely nail the shot clock required to keep it interesting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkiller Posted June 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Maybe they should just play Curry, Durrant, and Thompson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
