Like anything else, I believe you need to earn your spot. The high school and college rules recognize this, which is why you get the ball where you had it last. As for 4-point field goals in the NFL, the reason why you don't get more points for longer field goals is the same reason you need to kick from "way back there," you didn't earn the spot. And, if you're down by 7, get in the end zone.

It makes the end of the game more exciting. FIBA rules also allow an advance after a timeout though I think it's to halfcourt rather than the 28 foot mark like in the NBA.

I take it then that you're not liking the direction a lot of the major rule sets are going in then?

I'm sure basketball purists in the '60s and '70s bemoaned the thought of a 3-point line. It's one of my favorite things about the game. The game will never stop changing. |
