I dont know how you can be pummeled and getting a AND 1 in the paint is worth the same as a 3 point shot. Right now only layups and 3s really make sense unless can hit 65 percent or so from 2 or get to the line..

3s are also rewarded now because you get fouled on a 3 more so now then in the past by being in the shooters 'landing zone', yeah there are no kick outs like reggie miller but im sure if you look at the stats there are way more fouls on 3 point attempts then in years past, correct me if im wrong.
I'm not sure about the actual stats, but since there are a lot more 3 point shots being taken, there are probably a lot more fouls being called on them. Whether or not it's a statistical difference I don't know.
