Let me for a minute think about the number of times that I've had to determine if a shot is a 2 or 3 as the situation presented itself in the NCAA game. I think the answer is less than 2.

And on TV? Maybe a few...
The fact that we have people arguing that this shot should have been a three is enough proof for me that we need a clarification/change. I cannot believe that when the 3pt shot was added to the game that it was the intent or vision of the rule writers that such an attempt be worth three points.

BTW ... grace of the game?
