It's an issue for someone who is watching the game. It is one of the reasons the NBA is not fun for me to watch.

Change the rule and the strategy goes away. I'm not complaining as a player, I'm complaining as a viewer.

It's a legitimate technique that caused me to turn the channel and I never came back to the game. It's a legitimate reason the NBA's ratings and appeal are not what it used to be.
