Philadelphia 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey has been known for his out-of-the-box approach when it comes to all things basketball (and perhaps beyond). Recently, the high-ranking Sixers executive addressed the constantly growing epidemic that is the three-point shot in the NBA, and apparently, Morey has a bit of radical a solution to it.

To set the premise, Morey explained why he believes the (over) emergence of the three-pointer has become a problem not only fdor the Sixers, but for the rest of the league as well:

“A three-pointer is such a devastating shot, especially if it's a high percentage shooter,” Morey recently said on a radio interview, adding that he thinks it may be creating a one-dimensional game (h/t Jordan Cohn of Radio.com). “I don't think it's less aesthetically pleasing, but I think as someone who's really into games and winning in general… you can tell a game that's not well-structured is when there's only like one path to victory. Everyone knows it, and you know, we're getting there in the NBA.”

The Sixers president then went on to talk about the corner three — something that he believes poses an unfair advantage at this point. According to Morey, he believes that this is an issue the NBA will look into in the near future:

“I expect that to happen,” Morey said. “…A corner three is basically the same as getting a rim shot, a medium-guarded rim shot, which is sort of insane when you factor in fouls and everything else. So yeah, it's too big of a positive.

“I mean, I would be fine if we could reconstruct arenas, having the court be wider, push the line back and keep the corner three. Well, it's just you'd have to change out arenas and… I mean, it would take like 25 years.”

I don't think he's kidding here. Daryl Morey just proposed that the measurements of the basketball court — something that has been in place for ages — be altered significantly. As the Sixers executive said in his statement as well, this will require all NBA arenas to undergo major renovations in order to accommodate this potential rule change which will cost millions of dollars. That's not going to be difficult at all.
