Im convinced they pick plays like that to highlight on social media just to start the argument about traveling to laugh at. Works every time. Instant fight with everyone over 30 outraged and all the young people telling them to learn the game.
I just wish I could have been in the meeting when they decided on the zero step/gather essentially legalizing 3 steps. You know it had to be because they were sick of hearing about it and being unable to stop the players doing it. The top level of ball has the most loose rules when players that good shouldn’t require it. Kids all over the world get called out for what the guys they emulate do legally. I imagine it’s eventually gonna have to filter down to the lower levels like 3 pointers.
Im sure many of you don’t remember but for a long time only the pros had the 3 and then some colleges and even then high school didn’t. We would play pickup and kinda have an informal 3 point line but it wasn’t drawn on. Now they all have them by default.
The nba apparently decides the rules and you see teens online arguing all kinda bullshit is legal in pickup and high school highlights because the nba allows it so…I guess they just wait out the old people and then nobody will remember a time you couldn’t just run to the basket.
Worst thing to me is those guys are so ****ing good. They don’t need the help but…it is what it is.
For at least a few more decades the leagues social media people can get a laugh.
