Basketball is a game which your 12th man could make shots because it involves so much scoring. But that's not much entertaining value in seeing say, Patty Mills, good as a player he is, making shots. So I watch NBA to see Jordan, Kobe or LBJ making or missing shots and put on moves mere mortals can't even dream of. Drama sells in sports and that's why the Spurs, without any drama in the way they played, aren't a popular team.
If 33% of the shoots are threes, that would be boring. It already is kind of boring to see of this drive and kick out plays a lot of the teams play nowadays. Rules have been changed to free up shooters and now maybe rules shoot be changed to help the defenders like allowing them to hand check shooters outside of the painted area.
