I am amazed players in the impacted games didn’t notice. That isn’t a trivial deviation. Old story about Rick Barry noticing a rim was 2 inches high, and nobody believing him until they measured and found the rim was … 2 inches too high.
I'm also amazed no one noticed until those games had already been played. Shooting is so much eye-to-rim muscle memory and more than a foot in peripheral vision must have messed with whomever warmed up on that end. I was in a bar with multiple screens after a day in the field in a wind-driven rain, and I noticed from a barstool. You could tell the court wasn't symmetric. Maybe an occupational hazard on my end. Nerd alert!
