As far a "being negative," I'm just responding to your buddy, Isaak's post.

That's the point. We don't care that the rest of the world uses those rules. We only use them in the Olympics because we're forced to, not because we like them. The game was invented and developed in the US. FIBA folks took the game and changed the rules. Like it or not, Americans don't care for FIBA rules.
