Really cause i don't remember that happening before the 90's. Players today are so babied it almost turns me off to nba ball completely. That is one of the worst rules i have ever seen in the sport right after that stupid handchecking rule and right next to this touch foul culture we see now in the nba.![]()
And they don't even call traveling or palming anymore, they might as well take those rules out of the book
They used to have what was called "illegal defense" back when there was NO zones of any kind allowed in the NBA. If you got caught not guarding someone your team got a warning and the second time was a T.
Now that the NBA allows some form of zones they instituted the 3 second rule so the lane isn't completely clogged all game.
I don't see how that's stupid. Maybe the thread title just applies to you in this case.![]()
Refs already count to 5 or 6 though.All we're askin' 4 is that it be increased to 5 or 6 secs
The clear path is one of the most inconsistently called to the point that I have no damn idea what it actually is.
The Barkley rule. He used to have his back to the basket and back himself down for like 15 seconds. It made the game slow. The rule changes to spur more offense for the game.
What do you mean this is not the Mark Jackson rule?
It happened all the time in the 90s, child.Really cause i don't remember that happening before the 90's. Players today are so babied it almost turns me off to nba ball completely.

That's the backdown rule. What im talking about is this. 5 second violation---Too fast - YouTube
If its the same as the one I posted below I didn't realize it was the same rule. The impression I got from that play I posted was basically you can't dribble the ball anymore than 5 seconds without shooting or passing. And I see this happen in any game where a player dribbles down the shot clock. Didn't realize it was the backdown rule because they never call it on a perimeter player.

The Karl Malone/Charles Barkley/Mark Jackson rule is backing someone down for more than 5 seconds.
What you are talking about is if an offensive player takes more than 5 seconds to dribble the ball without advancing towards the basket. That's more of a college rule, than in the NBA. Someone posted an example of it.
The two rules I abhor are the charge rule, particularly contact after the player gives up the ball, and the offensive player jumping into a defender on a jump shot and drawing a foul on the defensive player. It annoyed me when Reggie Miller did it in the 90s. I don't know how that's a defensive foul and the jump shooter initiates the contact. On top of that, is there logically any difference between a charge call after the offensive player releases the ball and a jumps shooter drawing a foul after initiating contact?
