And if you really want to know ... I hate the three point line, the restricted area in the NCAA and in the NBE the defensive three second.

I think that's it.

#1...great idea.

#2....your rationale doesn't make sense. If the defense had really made such a good play, they'd have stolen the ball rather than had shared control with the offense. The defense (and offense) really made a 50/50 play. A jump ball might be a good result anyway, but not for the reason you give.

#3....it isn't broke, don't fix it. For many HS officials, this gets officiated a lot better.
