Absolutely, and old man jabs aside, this was what I asked for when I said discuss.
And I think the NBA has been a lot more proactive (for better (see Shaq, Miken Rules) or worse (See Jordan Rules) and yet more subtle in rule changes than say the NFL.
You want to hear another rule I've heard discussed? Now I haven't heard the NBA board of Directors mention this, but saw an article where some officials were quoted as knowing about it.
it's the "To Seven" rule.
Basically at I think it was at the 6 minute mark they stop the game, take the highest score of the two teams and add seven. The game ends when one team reaches that score.
That seems...crazy. I mean why bother with the rest of the game then, just play 21.
