It seems to make so much sense as far as adding something that will change the game but actually make the game more entertaining. Dudes having serious battles in the paint...to dunk on and to not get dunked on. Its what everyone wants but doesnt know it yet. You have to allow contact though. I wouldnt want the paint being turned into some No Holds Barred circus...but if done right it could make the level of intensity increase a lot, imo.
I see issues with transition dunks. I guess you would have to learn to not turn the ball over as much and you would have to make sure someone or multiple guys run back on defense before ball is pushed up court quickly.
I see issues with refs fubar'ing this new rule.
I can see an issue with some basketball scholars thinking this will dumb down the skill level of bigs. We are near a point where all positions are well rounded skill wise....do you circle back to wanting Shaq like bigs? I think bigs should still be well rounded but learn to protect the rim better if this was to be tried.
Maybe this would ruin basketball...I dont know. But...it seems way more interesting than 40ft 4pt line.
I don't know if I love or hate the idea but you have the pre-season and G-League to test out all these quirks.
