Tomegun, yes you are correct it is a different game. With that in mind they call it the way they are taught. Shaq would fould out very early in a game called with high school rules, yep he gets fouled also, but what he does has nothing to do with being a basketball player. As far as the best defender not being able to guard the 12th man, at the level below these guys it happens, yes they are younger but it does happen. If you call it like a high school game it can't just be the defenders that you call it for, take away the traveling, the palming the whole works and, hey wait that would make it more like basketball again...what a concept
