3x3 hustle

More basketball opportunities/jobs for players, refs and so on. I like that the variant means that someone who didn't play NBL (Steel) can be brilliant at it, and someone like Conn who never really got a long NBL run can be a force too.

How is it giving more opportunity it’s the same players getting the same opportunities just in a different format, same ones that make the aus squad, national teams, it’s not expanding the pool just getting the same ones out there

I've watched a bit and enjoyed it. I could see it getting into schools quite easily as another way for basketball to attract kids.

I think they're doing a good job of promoting it, especially the balance between male/female formats, and other age groups.

Any sport not developing a blitz format in 201x is leaving their flanks exposed, IMO.

It's not though. It is thoroughly in-entertaining even at the highest level.

Australia is very behind in terms of 3x3. Trust me when you see elite 3x3 at the Olympics or world stage it will be a lot better to watch.

No one is forced to watch it Shayno. I don't like some shows on TV so I just choose to not watch them as opposed to lobbying for them to be scratched.
If it makes you so uncomfortable to see then don't roll up as a spectator.
