Oh, and I completely disagree (and could back it up with stats) that it is harder for the offense to rebound missed FTs now. It is far easier, because the defense can't box out, and the players below the blocks are at a poor angle to rebound a shot from the FT line.
I agree entirely. Offensive rebounds are much easier. Moving the players back to sports 2, 3, and 4 like the NCAAW would return the advantage that used to exist when players could leave on the release.
I see this claim over and over but I just don't see it in the games. WHile it's not a guarantee, the defense gets an overwhelming majority of the rebounds on FTs.

You say the defense has no time to box out. However, the offense also does not have time to get around the defense.

Again, I simply don't see what you're claiming in my games.
