It is very interesting to review some of the historical changes to the rules - e.g. an air dribble was not traveling. Where can one learn the historical changes to officiating mechanics? I did note that they called some player control fouls that would absolutely have been NOTHING, a no call, in today's game.

I saw the game too. What's an air dribble?
I loved the fact that they called PC fouls. Did you notice how much cleaner the game was and how finesse and quickness were emphasized and there was very little pushing and shoving in the post? Geez, it looked like the game of basketball I grew up playing. I had forgotten how enjoyable the game could be played in a more pure form.
