I can go either way with advancing the ball. I understand the logic, though. When the game clock is under a certain number - usually 6 seconds - women's teams really don't seem to be able to go the length of the court to get a decent last-second shot. This adds offense which is what they want. From what I understand, coaches weren't thrilled with the idea because it essentially penalizes them for taking/holding a lead.
