I'm still making my fair share of three-point shots, but I'm not shooting at a 90% clip and neither is my opponent. The restriction this week makes me realize how many people don't know or understand basic mid-range shooting or post moves. It's pathetic right now.

It's the high three-point shooting percentages despite what the defense do that makes the 5-out offense so powerful.
It's the controlling factor for all of the gameplay design and implementation now which dooms online play to always be about mechanics/AI/animation exploitation and not real basketball strategy.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.
