The great thing about it is the due attention to proper free throw positioning of C (and 2-man T) and apt observance during the FT. For many for far too long free throw time has become "time off" and this rule change seems to be bringing things in a good direction.

Especially if called if/when it happens, the violation will become rare. Before the rule and cautionary preventative officiating regarding it, it was not uncommon around here. From dozens of clips from previous years:

Displacement of FTer 1
Early Entry and FT Line Violation
Displacement of FTer 2
