I dont hate the 3, but it has changed the game in ways I dont particularly care for. Pop hates the 3

Pop won championships because of the three. At least this is better discussion than his politics...

I agree with him and don't understand why people think its hypocritical. He did not say he did not do better because of the rule, only said that it made the game more boring.

Hes just mad because he is having trouble adjusting to how the NBA has changed in the last few years. NBA is at an all-time high in fan popularity. Spurs just arent an elite team right now. Sour grapes. Hes crotchety.

Don Nelson used to get hell for his offensive style....now it is the thing
Trust your own instinct. Your mistakes might as well be your own, instead of someone elses.

It's not the 3 point line The league allows more of a zone defense and has changed rules that have ended tough, physical defense play.
Thus, there are more quick players with shooting range and fewer bruising post players.
The league was most boring in the late 90s/early 00s when many teams would play isolation offense, setting up either a pick and roll or a one on one mismatch on every play. That was boring.

People think defensive basketball is boring? watch a game where both teams are jacking 3's and missing all of them. That is boring.
