I don't think it will cause any problems either. My point is how many states only use 2 man mechanics? Here the largest schools are the only with 3 man. What I am saying is, they may not want to implement shot clock with only 2 man mechanics. Maybe they only want shot clock in games with 3 man mechanics. I don't know why that would matter, but just a thought.

Scoring averages go down yearly, in my opinion largely due to increasing demand of the player going to the bucket, or in the post to play through contact.

Making the three-ball longer, or shortening possessions with a clock will only serve to launch even worse shots, and even less scoring.

What? There are states other than Connecticut that don't work three person games? Get outta here.
