Man these are amazing shots….if you truly feel that way then the theory that the NBA level of ball is a “solved game”. How does it get fixed without getting gimmicky? Does the change to 3 and 4 points make the most sense?

Chandler Parsons Places Kevin Durant Ahead of Kobe Bryant in Rankings
Kevin Durant is widely regarded as one of the greatest players in NBA history and is often compared to basketball legends like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. Recently, during an episode of the “Run It Back” podcast, Chandler Parsons sparked controversy by ranking Durant higher than Bryant in all-time NBA rankings.
“I love Kobe [Bryant], God rest his soul, but he’s not top-3 [all-time] in most people’s eyes. And I don’t even understand how this is even an argument with him & LeBron [James]. I would rank Kevin Durant above Kobe.” Parsons said.
Parsons’s bold statement could ignite a spirited debate within the NBA community. Fans will be eager to see Parsons’s reactions. Meanwhile, the Suns are facing a challenging situation in the 2024-25 NBA season. They currently sit in 10th place in the Western Conference standings, with a record of 19 wins and 19 losses.
