The analytics have correctly shown its best to bomb 3s, but man, it makes a boring product. I'm not sure how to fix it other that moving the line back and maybe doing away with the corner 3 altogether. Any ideas?

Used to love the NBA back in the 80's and 90s. There wasn't one person overshadowing the entire league. You had Bird vs Majic, Jordan vs Isaiah and it was more fast paced and fun. People want to see alot of ball movement not one pass and taking a long 3 where there is only a 30% of making it. Hell bring back Laker ball, now that was fun to watch, Hated the lakers but thought Jame3 Worthy was the unsung hero of the league.

The Warriors made the NBA fun again and destroyed the league all at the same time. It was incredible to watch those early Warriors teams play. Curry was just an incredible player to watch. However, every team decided to start playing that way and so now it's not a novelty anymore.
I liken it to the 7 Seconds or Less Suns of the mid 00s. They were fun to watch because it was different. However, everyone didn't magically adopt their style because they knew when the playoffs came that style would crash, and it always did. The reason that the Warriors style has never crashed in the postseason is that they had 2 of the top 10 shooters of all time on the court at the same time that they had guys with DEFINED roles, who accepted their roles.
