It's not from the same spot(just inside the arc) and it's not in a row(just on the second one made). Another way to think of it is basically awarding 2.5 points for every midrange shot.

OK, that makes it less gimmicky, not sure why I read interpreted it as a certain area, guess the word "cue" just made me think of specific zones (like you would see on a shot zone chart) but I'm still against it, but it is interesting. Idk, put it in the D-League and see how it works. I would make it so it has to be two consecutive made baskets in a row. If you make a midrange shot the next midrange shot is 3 points only if you make it, if you miss it resets back.
And why arent we extending the same courtesy to the paint non-restricted area shots?

Because I'm pretty sure those numbers are calculated before points from FT and because a good number of paint points would still be attempted as guys were trying to get to the rim but were met early by a big man.

I miss watching guys who had awesome post up games with multiple pump fakes, fadeaways, up and unders The Kevin McHale / Olajuwon types who could just score all night in every way from the post
