Get rid of the 3 point line and make all baskets twos. 

 

Value efficiency over lazy chucking..the current product is so bad I prefer watching the wnba over NBA. At least I can laugh when Angel Reese bricks two footers...

Ain't Kissinger in October 1973. I really don't think anything compares to Kissinger in the Soviet Union in October 1973. Yom Kippur War. Nixon battling Watergate. Guy faces down the Soviets and orders Defcon 2. He wins. I don't know anything in the history of world that compares.

It wasn't on national broadcast since TV wasnt around yet but as far as a historical comparison I'm going to throw David vs Goliath out there 😂

TV was definitely around in 1973. Kissinger literally out balled them in the highest stakes in the history of the word. I've read and listened to the transcript of Kissinger describing this to Mao Zedong a few weeks later in November 1973. Mao told Kissinger that he (Mao) was a monster for ordering millions to be "rectified," but Kissinger was more man than him because he risked the future of the world. Kissinger responded by saying that as a Jew born in Germany in 1923, he didn't do anything other than protect the standard of the American Constitution. Kissinger said that Mao could count on that in the infinite future.
