I'd expect worse, given the location.

TBT trying out an interesting end of game rule change to prevent fouling. I kind of like it.

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/19078511/zach-lowe-basketball-tournament-innovative-end-game-rule

The gist:

Quote
Elam landed on something more radical: eliminate the game clock from crunch time. Under Elam's proposal, the clock would vanish after the first stoppage under the three-minute mark in the NBA and the four-minute mark in NCAA games. Officials would establish a target score by taking the score of the leading team and adding seven points -- then restart the game without a clock. The team that reaches that target score first wins.

In simpler terms: If the Clippers lead the Jazz 99-91 when Rudy Gobert hacks DeAndre Jordan with 2:55 left, the game then becomes a race to 106 points. Utah must outscore the Clippers 15-6 to win.

I hate that. The clock is a component of the game, I don't like eliminating a component of the game, during the game.

It is almost certainly stupid but TBT is a great place to play with ideas like that.

Dumbest idea since the 3-point shot.

With a game change that drastic, you can never compare today's game to yesteryear's.  Also, officials become too involved in the game's outcome. They're too much part of it now, through non-calls and calls.

You want to improve the game of basketball? Eliminate the three-point line and do not allow players into the NBA who do not possess a college degree.

You're welcome.

A college degree? That would ruin college basketball. You really want coach Cal to have have those stud freshman for 3 to 4 years? Go watch women's ball if you want to see the same 4 to 6 teams at the top every year.

He makes himself look ridiculous, but he knows what will get media and people's attention, so it works.

Basketball should focus on consistently enforcing the few rules they already have, and stop trying to make the game more stupid than it already is.
