    Default What if the NBA added a 4 or 5 point line at 30 feet+?

    Do you think teams would avoid it or start adapting to utilize it more?

    I always think the NBA should make any shot behind the half court line count as 4 points.

    LeBron has infinite range. This would benefit him greatly.

    In all seriousness, I've always thought the NBA and NFL should adopt something like this.

    NBA:
    3p from 23'9 (current, I believe).
    4p from 28'
    5p from 35'+

    NFL:
    Use fantasy FG scoring.

    Honestly, not only is it logical, but it would make games more exciting, as currently "insurmountable" leads are now.. surmountable.

    Though to answer the OP... I think if the NFL version were done, teams would adapt and use it more.

    In the NBA, however, I don't think so. At least not right away. Right away it would be something used in desperate situations.

    However, we all know specialists would start coming around.
