![]() It works both ways, If a ball is boucing defense can pick it off the bounce or swat it away.
I don' think that much changes. How many bouceing balls are their? |

It may seem like it doesn't happen often cause guys respect the rule..giving the opportunity...trust me..its gonna get ridiculous..for the knicks who have guys like amare n melo( who almost always rebounds his own misses) they will have a field day ES

![]() The rule change would have a profound change in the way the game is currently played...It would change more things than helping the things it's being implemented to assist...

![]() If they do this rule change would that also impact goal tending or swatting a ball on it's way down away from the basket?

![]() I don't understand why things like this don't get handled with techmolagee(end/Kellerman).
You have cameras all over the rim, why not use sensors to define a zone above the rim you can't touch ball in??? Ref's only have to worry if an indicator of some sort was on when a player touches the ball.

![]() a) removal of a timeout or two is very needed
b) in Europe this rule just works fine, means you can tip in or deflect a ball after it has touched the rim. With the athleticism in the NBA there might be some goaltending issues though. |

The only thing this would change is it would speed up the game.

![]() I really don't see the problem with changing that stupid rule (I was born in Europe btw).
If you box out, nobody will be able to jump and dunk the ball. To the oppostie of common thinking, it won't reward athelticism but fundamentals, positionning and footwork. All the Mcgees of the world would never get a rebound from a Oakley. While they're at it, they should remove the even more stupid 3 second defensive violation (wtf I can't stay in the paint to protect my own basket???). |

![]() Suprised they never changed to the international "Box" to open the game up.
SInce they allowed zones the 3 second D rule makes sense otherwise you have guys just camping out under the basket so it was the compromise. Team defense and switching becomes a premium. |

![]() if theres a rule i want changed its the shot clock violation rule: you should reward the defense if they force a shot clock violation. So Whenever the opposing team shoots an airball, play does not stop unless the offensive team gets ball possession. This is an advantage to the defense because they get a running start to their offense.
