NBA rims are larger

And the cameras on top of the backboard are slightly closer too.

Not sure if you have cataracts...

Not sure if you have heard of Google.

They're the same diameter.

At least thats the size they say it is. I dont believe it

I totally agree with you. This European guy at my state fair said these were regulation in his country.

Either my eyes are really bad (always a possibility) or the 2 rims in the original post look exactly the same.

A little fun fact for you all...you can fit two regulation size basketball between the diameter of a regulation rim...just go to a sporting goods store and find out for yourself, rims look alot bigger down low than they do 10 ft up.

When I was playing in my teens, I used to practice with this attachment that goes on the rim to make it like 6-7 inches smaller...it was like shooting at a carnival rim but it did wonders for me shot.
