			<description><![CDATA[Ten days left in the season, including tonight. Three games of interest for today, Friday, 3 April 2026:<br />
<br />
7:00 pm CST - Raps at Grizz. Raps have been pretty shaky going up against weaker teams this year.<br />
<br />
7:30 pm CST - Magic at Mavs. As '21 said, a tanking trap game. Kidd had better be pretty slick with his lineups for us to pull this loss out.<br />
<br />
9:00 pm CST - Pels at Kings. I know the Pels are segababa, but surely they can beat the lowly Kings...<br />
<br />
Hopefully it's a night to keep the 6th-best odds.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As the seasons go on the more the game of basketball is (d)evolving into something we no longer resemble. The game is now simply two to three passes around and then a 3 point shot.  I get the evolution as, strategy-wise, it makes the most sense. But from a basketball purity sense, especially if shots aren't falling, it gets boring. Likewise, from a lineup perspective, too many teams are changing to where all five players are similar (essentially all 3&D players), which is, again, boring. <br />
<br />
Basketball, I believe, is most fun when there are multiple ways to score and with different types of players being integral to the chemistry of a winning squad. Before, a team needed a true, ball handling PG, a sniper SG, a multidimensional SF, a bruiser PF and a true big man to protect the paint and score inside. Now, it's almost considered a "win" if a team only gives up a 2pt shot.  But what if the ultimate in getting a goal (which requires both the ball AND scorer to get to the basket), the dunk, gets a team 3 points?<br />
<br />
Suddenly, inside the paint returns to being important. Likewise, bigger players both offensively and defensively become key.<br />
<br />
So if they moved the 3 point line back, eliminated wing 3s, and created a 3 point dunk, the game would return to having more nuisance and diverse strategy. <br />
<br />
Now, I know you're probably saying, "Rasheed, that's a LOT of changes!!!"  But, I say, think how much Adam Silver has messed with things already. Could it be any worse?]]></description>
