Message: [QUOTE="73CAV, post: 1045874, member: 3916"] While that may all be well and true, it still doesn't address the basic issue. If teams are not using more than 30 seconds of the shot clock, then little significant change will occur if you reduce said shot clock from 35 seconds to 30 seconds. All you're doing is eliminating time that wasn't being used in the first place. As it applies to UVa, reducing the shot clock could be advantageous to Virginia. If I am not mistaken, its defensive APL is significantly higher than average. Reducing the shot clock would likely result in more shot clock violations. I am not convinced such a change would affect the offense in any profound way. [/QUOTE]
