You're too quick ace!

The NBA just announced new Hack-a rules.
You're too quick ace!
Not a whole lot of change tbh. Teams donylt usually start hacking till the 4th.
Learn to shoot a damn FT. Ultimately, that's what the game is all about - putting the ball through the metal ring.
How about this? Each team can designate one player that doesn't have to shoot his own FT's. But that player can't shoot the ball. Ever.
Not really that big of a change, IMO. I can live with extending it to the last 2 minutes of every quarter.
Just glad they didn't change the rule completely to accommodate 3-4 players who can't shoot free throws.
Could have been worse. Im fine with these minor tweeks
Which idiot jumped on a player's back to commit an intentional foul?
Chris paul, out of a free throw
lol you mean have players with skill? nba lets these guys travel and carry every possession. why in the would they hold players to a skill standard? Height standard only in the nba.
My rule change would be if you do not shoot at least 60% for the season (100 ft minimum) half your salary will be donated to charity.
OR
If you are on this list, (Dwight Howard, Clint Capela, Andre Drummond, DeAndre Jordan...) you cannot participate in any meaningful games.
Doesn't matter. Timmy's gone.
Meh.
They should call those flagrant like they do in FIBA.
delly does that ...

Well, thankfully the Warriors have no one to hack.... Or we'd really be ed the way Pop over does it
im not a fan of the 2nd point
nerlens noel did it to andre drummond
they also have no shot blockers
This actually helps us as we will be in the market for scrub bigs for several years on now.....smh timmy retirement blues.
Perfect!
Me neither. A legitimate foul trying to fight through a screen? Terrible over-extension of the rule. This will have far more impact than the other tweaks. It will alter the possible outcome of some games, prove extremely controversial and have to be repealed. Under this rule, a team that is behind with time running out incurs a huge risk in employing extreme pressure to create a steal or a turnover. Huge shift in favor of the team trying to protect a lead.
Well you got me there. I keep forgetting this is the New NBA.
Lol changing the rules cause 3 guys can't make a FT.this league...
That's because it's not about playing basketball - it's about delivering a "product". It's the same reason they let every guard in the league carry the ball on every damn play.Lol changing the rules cause 3 guys can't make a FT.
Catering to people who can't play the game, because opposing teams take advantage of their lack of skill? That doesn't make any sense in the context of basketball. It's like the designated hitter rule. Baseball fans like to see guys hit the ball. So if one guy can't? We'll just let someone else bat for him. I don't think this will up the NBA as badly as the DH did baseball. But it's a start. It sure as sends a message what they're about.
There was a gap in the rules that allowed people to commit an intentional foul while the ball was in the air in the last two minutes, and it was considered a loose-ball foul (over the back) rather than an intentional foul. If they'd just called a technical the first time someone did it, which it is, none of this would be necessary.
