1-and-1

Don’t even get me started on the possession arrow as another stupid rule. It’s called a JUMP BALL for a reason. That needs to change before anything
Agree 1 million percent. Not to mention if you win the opening tip, the other team gets the possession arrow. How about at least awarding the arrow to the team that won the tip? It’s almost like you’re punished for it
 
1) The 1-&-1 is outdated, totally agree it should be eliminated. I’m kinda surprised it’s hung on as long as it has.
2) I’m mostly ambivalent on quarters vs halves. I would like to see how it would effect breaks in play and TV timeouts - I suspect the only way quarters will be implemented is in a format which allows more commercial breaks to get crammed in. I would not be a fan of that impact on the game.
3). I think people clamoring for the return of jump balls have forgotten what a cluster they were pre-1981. It may be that the best way to remind people what a bad idea jump balls are is to bring it back for a year. I have a lot of confidence it would last as long as challenging pass interference did in the NFL.
