Kelvin, You make some good points..
"Why would a one shot T and play at point of interruption increase bad behavior? In my opinion it is the two shot plus ball penalty that as caused alot of the problems. I know officials at the HS level let a lot of garbage go because the penalty is too stiff. When a T causes a 4-5 point swing we think hard about calling T's in a two point ball game." POINT TAKEN, I COULD SEE HOW THIS IS POSSIBLE.
"Why do you think we are going back to a violation on swinging the elbows? the penalty was disproportionate and was rarely called.. If it was we called a travel or something else." GOOD POINT I AGREE WITH THIS CHANGE.
"The best rule change the NCAA has done, and I hope the NF adopts next year is the no shots on offensive fouls. You call an illegal screen, the ball goes back out of bounds and we play instaed of going all the way to the other end to shoot FTs." NOT SURE ABOUT THIS ONE. I COULD SEE THE BENEFIT.
"the game is supposed to be fun (it's a game) we play the game for exercise, relaxation, and entertainment. We watch them for the same reasons." NO PROBLEM HERE EITHER.
I don't think we are that far apart, maybe just in a few ideals. I just really don't care for the NBA, maybe that just the bad taste in my mouth showing. The game is full of too many premadonna's and not enough quality. Maybe just as in the workplace where diversity has been pushe dfor its benefit(not sqaying I agree or disagree). There needs to be a push for it in the NBA, to help improve it...haha, like that would ever happen.
