One of the favorites that I hear mentioned often is the "lack of action" rule. If a team went into a stall, there would be different penalties. This rule is why many courts have a mark at 28 feet from the end line.

I'd be interested in knowing what the whole rule was. Maybe some of you guys with old rule books and extra time could enlighten us?
