I did see that the other night in the Clipper game! This cat dunked and the rim twisted kinda sideways. Looked crazy!
A new article today on the new rims. Scoring (by both teams combined for the first 7 days of the season) increased 9.6 points per game from last season (although last season was kind of an anomaly). season..points..FG%..3FG%..FT% 2006-07 196.7 2007-08 197.7 2008-09 190.3 .443 .334 .747 2009-10 199.9 .455 .363 .760 http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4620192
And if you're interested in changes from last season in the uniforms, this Oct. 26 article is like an encyclopedia of changes. It has like a hundred links. I'm not going to read it. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=lukas/091026&sportCat=nba
