Proposed rec league rule change

Mark, I'm not sure I understand the point of the rule change.

If it is trying to make it more of a penalty against the team that is fouling down the stretch, I think you are missing the mark (no pun intended). It really is a lesser penalty to just take the ball oob, plus that allows the defensive team to now get into their press when perhaps they weren't able to before.

If it is trying to protect a team with lousy free throw shooters, then it's an even worse decision. They need to learn to shoot better.

Maybe you could go to an automatic one point and the ball back or something like that, but this doesn't really "fix" anything, imo.
