POLL: Should the NBA adopt full FIBA rules?

[SchoolboyC]

Some of them, yes.

I like that superstar calls and foul baiting aren’t as incentivized, I like the reduced number of timeouts, I like that intentional fouls to stop fastbreaks aren’t allowed, I like that when there’s a shot clock violation they let the opposing team have a chance to recover the ball instead of immediately blowing the whistle, etc.

On the other, I don’t really care for the goaltending rules, shorter 3-pt line, 5 fouls, technicals counting as fouls, the possession arrow, etc.

Both have their pros and cons

Kinda split. There are some FIBA rules i like. There are some i dont.

One that i remember NOT liking is the goal-tending rule where once the ball hits the rim if it's hanging on the rim the defender can tip it out just as the offensive player can also tip it in.

fukk no.

Letting dudes clog the paint kills the game.

Also, these FIBA refs are so bad that I missed NBA refs for a minute.

 

[duncanthetall]

You and the rest of the bytchass mods should adopt not making up rules to ban nikkas from threads

Bro pretty sure @CHICAGO the only mod in the Seum. Take it up with him

 

[pete clemenza]

Only thing I like is less ticky tack superstar calls the less timeouts at the end of games other than that the rest of that sh*t is trash. I can't believe people would actually prefer to watch FIBA streetball. Plus that knocking the ball off the rim. That's clown shyt

 

[DlAMONDZ]

If it cuts down on obvious scrubs putting up 50 points every game, sure

@CHICAGO You a hoe and nobody listens to your trash ass music

 

[Rottweiler]

I don't like the goaltending and no defensive 3 sec rules. Other than that I like the flow and pace of the FIBA game.

 

[Guile]

What the NBA is doing with the rules this season is enough for me.

I don't want guys just standing in the lane, the silly goal tending rules, or 10 minute quarters.

 

[Primetime]

That no goal tending rule is interesting. I’ve always instinctively been against it... not bc I feel it’d make the game worse, but bc when you live your entire life under a certain code or belief system, completely eliminating it just seems kinda wild. The whole being resistant to change thing.

Kawhi game winner vs Philly never happens if Embiid could bat that ish away on 1st bounce. Pierce miracle shot in 08 doesn’t happen either. Making or intentionally tryna miss free throws would have a whole other layer of fukkery.

That would negatively affect slower footed lesser athletic players like Luka and Jokic.

These NBA rules allow the Euro skill set to flourish instead of getting clamped down.

 

[BillBanneker]

These nikkas don’t actually like FIBA, they just hype it up to fit their agenda that today’s NBA is soft or whatever. Patty Mills dropping 42 in this so-called tough and physical league.

That goaltending rule.
