Red face

I checked out the website for the new pro basketball league, http://www.aba2000.com. It seems to be a CBA, but in major cities. There are some former "fringe" NBA players on the rosters (Ed O'Bannion, Benoit Benjamin, Scotty Brooks, etc.) and some familiar coach names (Gene Bartow, Joey Meyers, etc.).

Yes they have the red, white and blue ball and they have one rule I would love to see in the NBA. If a team makes a steal in the backcourt and then scores, they get an extra point for the basket. This encourages full court defense.

Man, would I love to see Shaq have to try that for a whole game!

I would like to see a list of refs for this new league, like the ones they publish in Referee Magazine.

i like their stats:
"Points Per Minute" - i'd love to know who would lead the NBA in this category... Kobe? Carter? Stack? Shaq?
Assists/TO ratio: if muggsy wasn't injured, he'd be on top but right now it's probably stockton or payton
