I used to be against 24 seconds because i thought it would lead to iso ball like we saw twenty years agoOverall per Ken pom the possessions per 40 min data hasn't moved all that much compared with how much 3pt shooting volume has increased. You can look at it through the tempo column if interested.
The zone naturally positions us as a slower tempo team and naturally slows the game for our opponents too. Given the zone is used on occasion for most teams vs full time, you don't have that variable and really the only variable is the shot clock. 30 seconds hasn't had a huge impact. 24 seconds i feel would be a different animal and I think that's where they should take it.
teams eventually figured out that if you just move really fast, you can whip the ball around and find open threes or dunks.
