As I've been saying for a few years now, they'll need to either make threes harder (either by taking away corner threes or extending the 3PT line) or start devaluing them some other way. Analytics have taken over the NBA now and every team plays exactly the same way with Boston effectively perfecting the strategy.
I still don't know whether the NBA has the willingness to actually make the same kind of game changes that MLB has (Silver is a gutless commissioner and always has been) but they need to do it.
