Your point is silly and irrelevant. I simply disagreed with your idea to take away the opening jump ball. Way to go over the top, though.
Not in every game, but certainly in a big game with lots of people in the stands, there is an excitement at the start of the game when the players are lining up for the opening tip. It's a fair and equal beginning to a game. A coin toss would certainly take all of that excitement away.
