It had better not go to 6OT.
ND in 4OT will do.
Sherman...I could find a spot for him on our roster.
this is the most amazing performance I have seen by a guy who averaged like 3 minutes and 0.5 points a game and then drops 14 after checking in after regulation.
that tip was crazy
Watching this, it would be cool if players were granted a 6th foul once a game goes to OT.

Yes, it would be cool. And it makes sense.
I wouldn't do it quite like that, because the idea that a guy could be saved from a dq over and over because his team gets another overtime seems to promote the kind of basketball you don't really want to promote. Could you imagine Pitt or Craft in that kind of scenario? Plus, the ratio is off - an extra foul per 5 minute OT would equate to an 8 foul limit in regulation.I've always thought that, since it's a "brand new ball game", anyone who has fouled out can come back in with a limit of one foul per OT.
In the interests of letting teams put their best roster forward to compete in over time while maintaining some integrity around disqualification I would endorse a blanket policy where the foul limit increases to 6 at the beginning of OT. A player that had been dqed in regulation with 5 fouls can come back in
Yeah, I'm not consistent on this, because I do like the idea of one get out of jail free card, just not a bunch of them.Hadn't thought about it like that. There are so few multi-OT games that it probably wouldn't be a big deal, but I hear that.
What about slightly modifying this and saying that if the game goes to OT, if you haven't fouled out yet, then you would get six fouls? So if you foul out in regulation, then you can't come back in, but if you make it to OT, you get an extra foul. There is something weird to me about being fouled out of a game and then getting to come back in.
I'll disagree on the basis that I think it's cooler to watch 2nd/3rd stringers & even walk-ons play meaningful minutes. I imagine every once in a while there's some Div. 3 team that's forced down to 4 players in a multi-OT game on the road.Watching this, it would be cool if players were granted a 6th foul once a game goes to OT.
