Anyway - the shotclock is only 30 seconds and with closely guarded (holding the ball only) being in effect all over the court there is no need for a ten second back court rule.

womens teams mostly nusiance press to eat time, If the rule changed they might work on stronger presses but I prefer the way things are.

this was one of the items on the rules change survey for officials this year there were a bunch of choices including:

Back court count various scenarios
moving 3 point line back a foot
going to 10 min quarters
droping 1 &1 and moving directly to 2 shots on the 7th foul
