Re: WHY?

BTW: I am still alive and kicking.
Because officials would not call it because the book said T the kid for something that often times had no contact with the defender. Thats an excessive penalty for no contact.

2 plus ball plus foul on the kid - ouch!

This way you have the option to call a foul (technical?)if there is contact but just a violation in the event of no contact and still clean it up.

I like the change myself.
