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....

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.



Basketball is like poetry in motion, cross the guy to the left, take him back to the right, he's fallin' back, then just J right in his face. Then you look at him and say, "What?!"
