Across the board we are going to be looking for ways to make the life of an official easier. How can we simplify the rules and remove some of the more difficult calls.

As has been said here before, players will adjust.

I think we make the game too hard for the officials

Anyone have ideas on how we can simplify the rules ?
Simple, officials need to get full support for calling those travels that everyone says are not "obvious" or are just "technically traveling", to include telling coaches they can't complain about travel calls that are made.
