Regarding "shot clocks" I was curious why 35 seconds instead of 30 or 40 seconds? And on the various resets like out of bounds kick by defense or offensive rebounds why does it reset to a specific seconds like 14 or 20 instead of 15 or 25 seconds? And why the symbol mechanic for "patting on top of your head" to signal its expiry?
Are these just arbitrary values or were they derived from objective surveys?
