Let's clear up a few things:
1) Is the financial issue a big "roadblock" - Yes.
2) Lowering the basket height would ABSOLUTELY increase FG %.
3) Lower baskets actually reduce a teams' reliance on tall players....RAISING the basket would place a premium on player height.
4) It would take all of 2 weeks for players to adjust - they would be able to shoot more accurately and from a longer distance rather quickly.
5) Mock women's basketball all you want; their game is significantly closer to the ideal of Dr. James Naismith - fundamentals and skill.
