Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 1987202"] How does it help the flow? I understand the consistency across all levels argument, but I don't know how 4 quarters helps the flow of the game better than 2 halves. I would think 2 halves would be better for the flow. If we're debating the FT impact, I see neither option as significantly better than the other. In the NBA, teams are shooting free throws halfway through each quarter. So you get basketball for the first 1/8 of the game, then free throws for the next 1/8, then back to basketball, then back to free throws, and so on. In college you get basketball for the first 1/4, free throws for the next 1/4, basketball, free throws, done. [/QUOTE]
