I disagree with you. I like the rule change, but I think that we will have more, maybe not a lot more, but more players entering early with the change. We really need to be on our toes with the rule change.

I think it's less about them timing the release as it is they have more time to get in position when they start on the release as opposed to the hit - the ball still has to make it's way to the basket before they can try and get it. So they don't have as much of a (maybe false) sense of urgency that they need to start moving, before they are allowed to, to get into position.
