[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You must not watch basketball if you don't think the NBA players play defense now.

The [b]hand-check rule [/b]changed so the framework the players can play under is different, but they are doing everything they can within the rules.[/quote]

So the hand-check rule is the reason EVERYBODY just wants to chuck 3's instead of driving?  I'd think it would be easier to take it to the hole with the hand-check rule.  Is hand-check rule also the reason NBA players flop and cry to officials like European football players?  Is it the reason they are all lovey-dovey best friends and don't want to hurt each others feelings by playing aggressively?  They all want to be friends and orchestrate it so they can play with their bros and then take days off citing "load management."  .  For some reason, the competitive drive is diminished in today's game. Hand-check rule may have been a contributing factor,  but I think it's more of a cultural change.[/quote]

No, the reason they shoot threes is because those shots are worth 50% more than a drive to the basket.

As for the too friendly nature?
