Basketball has evolved into a game of calculated decision-making

Easy fix. Get rid of the corner threes and push the three point line back.

I disagree; that would just squeeze the action into a smaller area of the court because offenses would avoid the corner 2.

Another proposal would be to widen the court so the 3 point line would be a complete half circle.

Or just get rid of 3 pointers entirely in the NBA.

Or add a 4-point line

Yeah just make it a straight line, that would be the easiest. Wouldn’t require any rule changes either.

This could affect the sales, as there will be less court-side seats.
