The new 3 point line.....

So what was the consensus, did it help the game, hurt the game, or have no affect?

I haven't seen the stats for the year, but I'd have to say based on the basketball I watched, it had zero affect on the game this year, which was about what I expected.

2009 to date:
3PM/3PA:34.2%
3PA/FGA:33.1%

2008 season
3PM/3PA:35.1%
3PA/FGA:34.4%

It looks like slightly fewer 3's were taken and made. But, not much of a difference. I don't think it opened the mid-range game too much.
