Art. 3. After an offensive rebound, there are no secondary defenders when the rebounder makes an immediate move to the basket.

I dont think it matters how far the rebound travels, an immediate move to the basket is the key here.

Terrible. Just adopt the NBA rule all the way. Widen the lane, mark the LDB and make a 4' arc. All this pussyfooting around is dumb. We all know what they want, so just DO it.

Actually, I'd probably need a lawyer for copyright infringement or something if Nike ever saw that post.

Since I have friends at Nike, I could forward your post. However, for a modest financial consideration, I could forget I ever saw it. Just message me your debit card number and PIN. Thanks.

all of these exceptions/restrictions for the restricted-area rule, remind me of how the college basketball rules are so complex/needlessly confusing compared to NBA rules (simply compare the size of each rule book).

i.e. in the NBA, when the ball hits the rim, the shot clock is reset (no exceptions). In NCAA, the shot clock is only reset when a "shot" hits the rim (NOT a pass or deflection). So you have the judgement of each official and the shot clock operator come into play.

Exactly...it's like they don't want to go all in on the rule.
