We start the match with a crumpet toss. And, of course, if someone gets out of line, it's tea time.

In addition to no coaches calling TO's, I'd say ONLY the coach and other players on the bench. No more assistant coaches mumbling about travels under their breath, or standing up "coaching" while the coach is doing the same. Let 'em watch from the second row - then they can do as they please.

Only the head coach can stand if your state has adopted the coaching box

Rule Change

Only a player on the floor able to request a time out.

And complimentary shrimp cocktail after every game.

Robert Parrish RIP ...

00 illegal.

Simple, easy to understand. No problem confusing it with duplicate of 0.

I would like to see FT lane restrictions end on the release of FT try.

Keep coach power to call time out.

Sit them down. Assistant coaches are not allowed to stand and coach. Deal with it early, as soon as you see them standing.

I think Derwil is suggesting that assistant coaches not even be allowed on the bench. Only the head coach and bench personnel who are eligible to become players would be allowed on the bench.

At least it's a step in the right direction. I suggest no overtimes at all. If the game ends in a tie, the winner is decided by the captains doing rock, paper, scissors.

2 best of 3 or 3 best of 5 or???

My suggestion: male coaching girls basketball should wear a dress.

I'd like to see some of the "fashion police" rules go away... like tights, color of headbands and wristbands. Other than that, no TO from the coach.
