Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 4543504, member: 237"] Good points. I think a deeper look at the rules makes sense. One I had always pondered was that after reaching the penalty, the fouled team has a choice of free throws or side out and making the penalty two shots like it is in the NBA. The exception being on an and-1 where there is always just a FT. While it's always a dynamic of the game the 1 and 1 to me is out dated and a cheap way to use committing fouls to your advantage. Take that with a simplified rule book. Additionally, then move back to 6 fouls for DQ instead of 5. I'm sure other ideas are out there too but any way to make officiating still important to applying the rules of the game but not such that it can dictate the outcome of the game would be ideal.
