Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but I heard the the European 3 points line would be made the same distance as the NBA 3 points line starting this season....

what?how do you know that?if that would be true it would be one of the hottest topics in europeans bball sites.

that's true, there was a thread about it in the nba basketball section a while ago

J Rock · 07-17-2008, 02:38 PM

Yeah but it will happen probably in 2010.

I'm surprised people didn't know about this already. Yes the european 3pt line will go from 6.25 to 6.75 and yes it will be probably put into action from 2010 as already mentioned.

I think Jennings will struggle big time because of his weak body. Every NBA player who plays international ball says that it's more physical in international ball than in the NBA. Jennings has such a young and weak body that I think he's just not ready for that level.

i think he'll struggle a little bit,
because he has to deal with 230 pound david hawkins for starting role,
