So my ? is this, what is teh logic of making this rule change.

If A1 commits a player control foul, no FTs are shot. If A2 sets an illegal screen, B1 shoots FTs if B is in the bonus. What logic is there in that? Team is penalized twice for A2's foul, once by losing the ball and twice by B1 getting FTs.

Dosent that take away from good defense from the defensive team.

Why? The defense gets the ball, don't that?

Further, if A2 sets an illegal screen, how is that good defense? That's simply a foul on A2. It has nothing to do with good defense.
