NCAA Rules Change Proposal
« on: May 16, 2015, 06:09:40 AM »
http://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/men-s-basketball-rules-committee-recommends-package-proposals-improve-game

Lots of big changes seem to be coming. Here are a few of the highlights...
.
  • Expanding 3-foot arc to 4 to reduce collisions around the hoop.
  • Reducing moving screens.
  • Reducing shot clock to 30 seconds.
  • Remove one timeout in the second half.
  • If a timeout is called within 30 seconds of a media timeout or at any time when a dead ball would cause a media timeout, that timeout becomes the media timeout (e.g. 16:30, 12:20, 7:55 without stoppage, etc.)
  • Coach cannot call live ball timeouts. Must be called by player on the court.
  • Only 10 seconds to cross the timeline. Presumably will not reset with a timeout.
  • Faked fouls are reviewable and can be punished (cough, Gasser, Kaminsky, cough).
  • Shot clock violations or non-violations are reviewable.
  • 6 fouls proposed for postseason play. Guessing will be experimented with in the NIT/CBI first.

Not a big fan of that media timeout rule. I plan my runs to the Tap House when someone fouls right before a media timeout.

I love going to 6 fouls before disqualifying a player.  Right now I suspect that at times fouls aren't called by refs who don't want to be accused of deciding a game by disqualifying a key player.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

I totally agree that fouls aren't called but I hate the idea of having different rules for the post season versus regular season.  Test it out in the NIT/CBA like with the 30 second clock but don't have the rules change in March.

I love the new timeout rules.  It's so annoying when you get a TO, then they play for a few seconds, and suddenly you get another.  And taking away a second half one is even better.  Just play the game.

Wonder if they're going to call the fake foul thing the "Bo Ryan rule."

And how will this change in the rules change a referee's MO/fortitude/integrity?

I would like a sixth foul in overtime, but not regulation. No need, IMO.

I think the best thing is not allowing coaches to call time outs when the game is in progress. I do not think we need a 6Th foul, but should make charges just be turnovers and not a foul. I like the fake foul rule, but I do not think it will really work. I hate it when the player with the ball jerks his head like he was fouled even though he was not even touched. As long as they are going to penalize the fake foul they should also penalize the players who after knocking the ball out of bounds point as if it is their ball to influence the refs call.

- Allowing officials to use the monitor to review a potential shot clock violation on made field goals throughout the entire game.

Combining this with the shorter shot clock could spell trouble. Flow-of-game issues caused by more monitor reviews. Awful.

- Eliminating the five-second closely guarded rule while dribbling the ball.

I need to understanding the thinking on this one.

- Removing the prohibition on dunking in pregame warmups.

Wait til a couple of rims are eff'd up during warmups...

The one rule I would favor over any of these is that only the offensive team can call a time out.

Completely agree.  Five fouls in 40 minutes is plenty.  The NBA has six because they play 48 minutes.  In overtime period(s) they should go up to six.

The objective of overtime is to end the game, not extend it.  Let them foul out so a winner can be determined.

not a fan of many or any of these. 6 fouls for an overtime game would be good. but does someone who got disqualified for having 5 fouls before the overtime period get allowed back in the game when the overtime period starts? doesn't think that should be allowed, but then why should everyone else get an extra foul while they don't?

Not seeing the correlation there.  Why would the fact that players have an extra foul have any impact on additional overtimes being played?

6 fouls will make it much harder to upset the better team. The one hope every team has going into a game against a higher ranked team is that their opponent's star gets in foul trouble. 6 fouls would make the outcome more predictable and therefore the games will be less exciting.

If a game goes to overtime, we can assume the teams are even that day.  Need to make them "uneven" to get a victory.  Foul trouble/fouling out is a good catalyst to making one team uneven to end the game.

I'd argue the opposite is often true. A lesser team competes well against a better team because of their star having an unreal game. Foul trouble can change this quickly.

  • 6 fouls proposed for postseason play. Guessing will be experimented with in the NIT/CBI first.
1.  Good.   Cuts down on traffic under the rim.
2.  Moving screens are already prohibited.   Will the definition be changed?
3.  I don't like it.   If you want to promote scoring, teach shooting, cut down on hand checks, cut down on bumping cutters. 
4.  I don't like it.   Shorten the time outs, don't take them away.   I like the tension build in the last couple minutes as a team makes a run.  .
5. Neutral.
6. The arena is going crazy, the coach desperately wants a timeout, the PG isn't looking over, the play doesn't get called, the game is lost.    I don't like it. 
7.  Like this one.   Hate the TO's called at 9 with the ball still 20 feet from mid court and then getting a fresh count.   
8.  You want to speed up the game while simultaneously reviewing possible fake fouls?   Conflicting goals.
9.  This one I like.
10. 6 fouls will come eventually.   I don't like the bifurcation.

1977 scoring averages 77.4 points per game.  No shot clock, some teams playing 4 corners.

2015 scoring average with a 35 seconds shot clock.....67.74 points per game.

Three point line wasn't needed with how awfully spread out defenses were in the 70's.

Not to mention it is an entirely different game. There was no 3-point shot and most teams won or lost based on their mid-range game and getting the ball to the low post. Chicos comment is typical of the back to the future strategy he employs for every single issue.

Also, Dean's strategy was for when they were ahead - it wasn't a wire to wire plan.

Just a hunch, but I'm going to say that kids playing all 4 years back then, understanding systems, playing purer form of basketball and less of the individual crap we too often see, also made more efficient offenses back then.

The three point line has given teams the ability to score more points on a possession and also opened up lanes by spreading the court, but scoring levels are still down since then.  Just as they went down from the 45 second shot clock to the 35 second shot clock over time.

Wow. Silly Stats that means nothing.

In the last year without the 3-point shots, the scoring average was 69.4 ppg. So I guess that means that the 3 pointer in college basketball reduces scoring

Are you trying to tell me that college teams in the 70's would beat the ones in 2015? Cause you would be dead wrong. Just like the 80's nba teams would be annihilated by the physicality of todays teams.

Yeah, I think some of those college teams of the 1970s' with UCLA, Kentucky, etc, would do just fine against today's teams.  Just fine.  Experience alone. 

I don't agree with your 80's NBA team comments either.  It's funny how quickly we forget about great players or teams and just assume that the most recent version is the best version.  That isn't always the case.  Yes, players get bigger, stronger, etc and its tough to compare against eras, in fact it is foolhardy.

But why isn't TEAM scoring down as much as the top individual scoring? Better balance on rosters? More talented players? I could go with that... but, seems like there's something more.

Jim Boeheim disagrees. He thinks it would be no contest.

And I think the Lakers / Celtics teams of the 80's would be just fine today. Actually better than fine.

Because defenses are so much better, it is easier to slow down the great scorer.   Helping, switching, forcing the guard to the sideline on the high pick and roll, bumping the cutter, better scouting, etc.

Way too simple to say just the defenses are better, though I see that is a common theme.  Yes, defenses are intricate, but so are offenses. 

In my view, the fundamentals aren't there across the board.  The AAU nonsense doesn't help IMO.  Also kids don't play together as long, so the cohesion isn't there.  The more you play together as a unit, the better the offense and defense will be. Kids bailing early, transferring at alarming rates, too much focus on the name on the back of the shirt instead of the one on the front (trying to make a statement).  In my view, the shot clock hasn't helped things.  Scoring is down and our solution is to keep speeding it up, make these kids think even faster, shoot when they aren't ready. 

I suspect the volume of D1 teams has not helped as some kids playing DI today wouldn't be back in the day....resulting in dilution.  Though, having said that, a lot of people think that today's players are so much better than players in the past that would not fit well with their argument as presumably today's players on the 300th ranked team are better than those on the 250th ranked team from the 1980's when DI was smaller.

6. The arena is going crazy, the coach desperately wants a timeout, the PG isn't looking over, the play doesn't get called, the game is lost.    I don't like it. 

This is the only one that jumped out at me as wrong. I mean, god forbid these guys have to actually use what they were supposed to have learned pre-game without needing to be told again.

This is the only one that jumped out at me as wrong. I mean, god forbid these guys have to actually use what they were supposed to have learned pre-game without needing to be told again.


What they should have learned in the pre-game is to call a timeout when your coach is jumping up and down screaming for one.

Lots of big changes seem to be coming. Here are a few of the highlights...
.
  • Expanding 3-foot arc to 4 to reduce collisions around the hoop.
  • Reducing moving screens.
  • Reducing shot clock to 30 seconds.
  • Remove one timeout in the second half.
  • If a timeout is called within 30 seconds of a media timeout or at any time when a dead ball would cause a media timeout, that timeout becomes the media timeout (e.g. 16:30, 12:20, 7:55 without stoppage, etc.)
  • Coach cannot call live ball timeouts. Must be called by player on the court.
  • Only 10 seconds to cross the timeline. Presumably will not reset with a timeout.
  • Faked fouls are reviewable and can be punished (cough, Gasser, Kaminsky, cough).
  • Shot clock violations or non-violations are reviewable.
  • 6 fouls proposed for postseason play. Guessing will be experimented with in the NIT/CBI first.

I like a lot of these. Getting rid of one time out and ending the time-out/play 10 seconds/ media time out fiasco are especially good.

I don't like the 6th foul for postseason; play the same rules as regular season, please. Not a huge fan of reviewing shot-clock violations because it's bound to ruin the flow of games, but I guess that's balanced by getting the call right.

I'd especially like to see them enforce moving-screen rules, because it has become an epidemic. I first noticed it in college ball with the 2005 Illinois team. James Augustine, an athletic big man, seemed to set a dozen moving screens per game and was just about never called. It probably happened plenty before that, but that's when I started noticing.

Today, the big men in pro and college ball stick out their butts, stick out their legs and hook defenders with their arms. DeAndre Jordan probably did it 10 times just yesterday. Kevin Garnett used to do it every position. I don't know how it isn't an offensive foul when Dwight Howard hooks a defender with his arm when the defender is trying to stay with Harden.

What's especially comical is when, on the 20th time a guy does it in a game, a ref calls it. This happened to Garnett a few years ago, and he went ballistic. It was an obvious offensive foul - but the refs let him do it all season and probably a dozen times that game, so it's hard to blame him for wondering, "Why this time?"

Teach your guys how to set screens properly and then have the refs enforce the rules. That's all you need to do. I mean, Malone didn't grab the defender every time he set a pick-and-pop screen for Stockton -- because if he did he'd have been called for it and because Sloan emphasized doing it right.

It may not be that defenses have inherently improved, but it could be simply that basketball players are now taller and wider than they were in 1977, which may look as though better defense is played now relative to the 70s.

For example, Dikembe Mutombo had a wingspan of like 7 feet ten inches or some ridiculous number.  LeBron is 6'9 250.  Players from the 70s don't look nearly as, well, huge as they do now.  Yet the court is the exact same size.  So, while the court size has stayed the same size, the players playing on it have grown in both weight, wingspan, and likely speed (covering more area in a shorter span of time).  This clutters up the court, causing fewer close shots and ultimately fewer points scored.

But why isn't TEAM scoring down as much as the top individual scoring? Better balance on rosters? More talented players? I could go with that... but, seems like there's something more.

Maybe the summer circuits have something to do with it?

Kids are ready to play now coming out of HS. Back in the 70's and 80's most high school kids played 20 or so games in their HS schedule and that was it.

Looks like 1, 3, 4 and 5 were approved by the NCAA.

I wish they bring back the jump ball.

And the women are going to 4 10-minute quarters.  Are the guys next?

4 10-minute quarters with no timeouts would be my ideal game to watch.

Four, 10 minute quarters with TV timeouts after 5:00 would be fine with me.  Give the networks an extra :30 seconds of timeouts in between quarters to make up for the difference.

I like all the changes.  Now reduce the time on flagrant foul reviews and we're in good shape.  Nothing like an unnecessary five minute delay for a call that should take 15 seconds to review.
