That is largely because about 99.95% of captains (and, likely, 90% of their coaches) have no idea the rule is there....

even if they knew the rule, i doubt it would be requested much.....how hard can it be to figure out who you are guarding?

there isn't a defensive team captain on the floor to request the "match game" moment?

Why deny it. Don't look for trouble.

I'm with you, however, the rule specifically indicates a captain is to request, though.

I know this is a rule, but how often is this enforced? I have players ask me what the foul call was (politely) or how many shots we have and I don't think twice. Assuming no unsportsmanlike conduct or disrespect towards an official, has anyone ever T'd a non-captain player for speaking to the you?

Why would you? How would you? Based on what rule?

Official beckons subs in.
Subs enter the game, replaced players leave.
Official pauses 2-3 seconds while players do the "I've got 52, you take 23" thing.
Game resumes.

If you request it, you're a captain.

Smoking is bad for you and Cuban cigars are illegal in this country.

How'd you get to be a moderator?

Better yet? What if there isn't a "speaking captain" on the floor, just a regular, run of the mill, ordinary, garden variety, captain?
