So if you swish a 3, it's worth 5
Swish a 2 it's worth 4
A free throw is now worth 3 if it's all net
And-one if it swishes is now worth 4 or 5(4 point play)+ 3 if you swish the free throw. Teams would literally have a chance at coming back if they are down by 8 under 30 seconds making the game more interesting.
This revolutionizes the game. Players would literally focus on their shots instead of chucking them.
NBA should think about this. Thoughts?

Good lord the refs have a hard enough job. Can't imagine the bickering over if shots touched the rim or not.

No because it's one more thing for the refs to screw up along with endless replays to confirm if the ball touched rim

Games take long enough already. No thanks.
The NBA would love the extra commercial time they'd get during the review process though.

Oh and the 4 point layup would replace the 3 point shot so welcome back, big men.

A lot of shots are made without touching the rim already. Now the refs would have to review even more game action? A 3 hour event would now last over 9 hours easily.
