Women's basketball does have some rules that are better for the game and I would like to see the men's game adapt.  I think playing quarters instead of halves really helps the flow of the game.  If you are not aware of the way it works, each team gets five fouls a quarter before they reach the bonus.  When they reach the bonus there is no one and one, everything is two shots.  The fouls reset after each quarter.   Why are the NCAA men the only league in the world that doesn't play quarters?

I also like the rule where you can advance the ball to half court with less than a minute left in the game with a time out.  I adds to the excitement at the end of games and makes the use of time outs a lot more strategic.

I also wouldn't mind seeing them adapt the NBA's defensive three seconds.  I admit I watch a lot more NBA than NCAA, but it drives me crazy when I watch a college game and see someone camped out in the paint not guarding anyone.  For that matter the NCAA should start calling offensive three seconds.  There is so much room for improvement in the college game.
