Dixon, I've told you your idea isn't a bad one. Makes sense. Ok with me. But your "tell that to the losing team" attitude about it and idea that this is some severe injustice that demands immediate attention is where you lose me and likely everybody else. Any coach on the planet who blames this rule for losing shouldnt be a coach. Any team that blames this rule for losing a game isn't much of a team and never will be unless those thoughts change. That coach and that team need to look in the mirror.

If you make the FTs, then what is the disadvantage? The rules allow for you to get FTs with no one on the line, with no one else around the lane to make FTs. Anyone can shoot the FTs that is in the game and then you move on. You miss the FTs, then you consider it a disadvantage. But as shown, getting the ball at half court gives you many options and if you run a play right you might get a very good shot. Life is not always going to be fair and if you cannot make FTs, you have nothing to complain about in this situation.

Peace

How would this be coming from upper levels? There is no level who does it as you suggest. None.

Let's move the situation. A1 scores to go up by 1 with 3 seconds left and gets a T for taunting (assume he earned it). Would you rather have B take their shots and then head back down to the other end for the end line throw in?

Your initial argument makes no sense at all. POI would potentially give the ball to the offending team, which is silly. And in at least half, if not the majority of cases, you will end up putting the offended team at a disadvantage rather than an advantageous position. Only in a small number of cases would your awesome rule change help the offended team. You have tunnel vision - all you're seeing is the affect from this one play that might (might not) help this team, who would have probably won the game if they made the free throws. The free throws matter. Everything that happened earlier in the game matters, too. If they hadn't missed shots in the first half they may have won, too. You can't blame the rule for this loss. Lighten up, Francis.
