Well, let's see...the experimental time-out thing from last summer, where you put the ball on the floor at the throw-in spot and leave it there (unless cheerleaders come on the floor in that area)...also, changed the wide-angle position to two to three steps inside the 3-point arc...also, no more lock-downs when the shot clock goes off, so we can still rotate. C still has clock...

I hope they get rid of the putting the ball on the floor. There's just way too much that can happen; the ball can roll around on its own (and we're supposed to go chase it?). Or some smart-aleck fan walks by and picks it up. Or it gets accidentally kicked by the 4-year-old sitting right behind it. What's wrong with the official who has the OOB spot holding the ball?
Now, with a rotation with the shot clock off, are you saying the new C will have the clock after the rotation? If there are only a few seconds left in the period, how do we communicate as officials the "transfer of responsibility"?
