Out of curiosity, why are we, Nepalis, in love with the 3 point??? That is all I seem to ever hear about, is 3 pointers. I think it is a shame, because the philosophy really stops teams and players from playing the more natural way. Instead of drives, mid-range jumpers, its too bad we prefer to just launch 3's with no regard. Its a shame that we do not put enough emphasis on assists, rebounds, blocked shots, steals, drives, mid/short range jump shots and taking charges. The reason I am saying this is because instead of players focusing on having an all around game, they worry about whether they can shoot three's. Especially the young players, they tend to work more on the 3 point game than anything else. Yah, against Nepalis it might work, but when the play street ball or any kind of pick up game, a lot of players look lost because they dont know what to do... Because after a few misses from the 3 point line, they will stop getting the ball..
