But with the "purposed" change, you wouldn't have to rule on whether it was a try. And it's not like the last team to control the ball gains an advantage by its having hit the rim; that pretty well randomizes the rebound, so why have time on the shot clock continue? If they can work passes off the rim, that's a great skill that should be rewarded!
