And it's going to continue to increase.

So, yeah, it's just interesting.

If you're teaching young players to get rebounds in college basketball, you're teaching them to rebound missed threes, which is crazy.

Yeah, we did that.

I remember I did two pieces at Grantland that are relevant to this.

One was where rebounds go.

So we mapped out, you know, 100,000 rebounds and based on where the shot was.

And statistically, a lot more rebounds on corner threes go to the weak side.

Top of the key, as you alluded to, a little harder to predict.

Generally, the physics is going to take it to the other side.

But one of the more secretly viral pieces, and I think Jacoby helped with this a little bit at Grantland, was...

I wrote about the tyranny of ones and twos and pickup basketball because it was, it was taking, it was, it was, it was a perverse incentive for terrible shooters to shoot more and more.

It was the worst thing that ever happened.

And people either love this piece or hated it, but it got, I don't know how we counted it back in those days, Facebook shares or whatever, but it was like people.

And I was like, we should be playing twos and threes and pickups bill.

Yeah, because we're incentivizing terrible shooters to shoot more and more threes.

The other trend I had, which was darker, was just... And I wanted to get your take on this.

What's dark about that?

But... No, I was just saying, with the LeBron news... Yeah.

The trend, and I want to shout out Tom Haberstroh for finding this last year, and I think it's going to continue this year, is just the sheer amount of missed games from the league's best players.
