One rule change I'd like to see seriusly is to adopt a rule similar to the NBA for the 2nd and 4th quarter where if a team has less than 6 team fouls, the bonus is shot for appropriate fouls after the second foul inside 2 minutes.

if a team has played well enough in the whole half to keep the foul count low, why penalize them for using the fouls strategically to keep the other team from scoring. The NBA is purely for entertainment, so they use that rule to keep the superstars from being fouled before they start a drive, or at least if they are to let them get to the line....in high school a team shouldn't be punished for keeping the foul count low..
