I don't understand why the pro-shot clock crowd talks about how awful stalling is but never says anything about the defenses sitting back and not making any attempt to get a count or force action.

Shot Clock and Lack of Sufficient Action.

Since most everyone knows my position with regard to Shot Clocks, my suggestion is to bring back the Lack of Sufficient Action Rule with one tweak bring back the Mid-Court and Forecourt Areas to make the Rule easier to adjudicate.

And don't forget the peach baskets. We gotta get the peach baskets back.

I love your nostalgia on these things, but they are not bringing back that rule. They will put in the shot clock before they bring back that silly rule.

Peace

It's not out of the question to have a quality team be very capable of passing the ball around and dribbling around for 1-2 minutes if the defense forces the action.

Good for them. Seriously. They should be allowed to continue to do so.

Absolutely! That's not inactivity, that's not a game killer. I don't know why we seem determined to force teams out of a possession.
