    Default NBA discussed new court, 4-pointer

    NBA president of basketball operations Rod Thorn and vice president Kiki Vandeweghe acknowledged in a recent interview with ESPN.com that the league office, at least in an exploratory fashion, has weighed expanding the dimensions of the court and the introduction of a 4-point shot.

    In a sitdown interview with ESPN's TrueHoop TV, conducted during All-Star Weekend in New Orleans earlier this month, Thorn and Vandeweghe spoke of both concepts mostly from a hypothetical standpoint, but did concede that the ideas have been presented for discussion at a league level.

    On Tuesday, NBA spokesman Tim Frank downplayed the chances of either idea gaining traction.

    Agree 100%

    Maybe thats why they want this? Maybe they should go with the 100 pt shot from the other side of the court. lol

    I think the regular season can be stale, but I'm still a fan of playoff basketball when the crowds are actually into the game.

    Agreed. Playoff basketball is really really good imo - the regular season sucks though
