The changes seem small, but taken as a whole they definitely tilt the scales in the favor of the bigger, more talented teams come March. Low and mid-majors typically try to shrink the game against more talented opponents, and five seconds adds up over 60 possessions. I'm not a big fan of that change.

I like the media timeout merging with a timeout called within 30 second prior. That will help speed up the game. Some coaches got really good at making those time around the media timeouts last as long as possible to get guys rest.
 
I love the 30 second shot clock and the media timeout change. I would like so see the media timeouts changed to every 5 mins instead of every 4 to eliminate one a half (I doubt that would happen for financial reasons).
 
Hate shot clock
The NBA is unwatchable, why mess with a good thing.
This helps the big programs and hurts mid major because they can't shorten the game.
 
I've wanted a shorter shot clock for a while. Time out thing I hadn't put too much thought into but so much time is wasted aimlessly standing around at the top. It will move the game move a little more and 30 seconds is still plenty of time.

Plus I think this will benefit the style of play Mullin is going to use
 
I want to see fewer and shorter timeouts
Difficult to legislate because of the almighty commercial revenue
Frequent T.O.'s disrupt the flow of the game and can kill momentum for a team
Players should have to stay on the court when someone fouls out and is replaced
The same should apply when the officials are looking at video replays

I think that your last point is something that will be changed pretty soon. Coaches shouldn't be able to get a timeout when someone fouls out of the game. It's not like they would have to put much thought into who is replacing that player. It is a split second decision that can be made without the players leaving their spot on the floor.

As for the video replay, didn't that happen to the Cavs in the playoffs this year and they were able to draw up a play in the last seconds of a game and won? That's gotta change.
 
Women's game is going to 10 minute quarters next year
Would that make the men's game better, worse or have no effect?

It takes the importance of properly allocating timeouts away to some extent
You can anticipate getting some "freebies" with the current rules
Between foul outs and checking the monitors, you get several extra T.O.'s/game

The truth is most of the college players are not and will not be pros. The shot clock gives the lesser players a chance to compete and makes the game fun to play and watch. Somehow I feel this is a TV motivated rule. I don't like it

Would love to see the formula and or calculations you used to come up with over 60 possessions being added by reducing shot clock from 35 to 30 seconds. Would think it would be much much less than that. :unsure:

He saying that over 60 possessions, a 5 seconds difference adds up.
 
I knew some of this was coming. What surprised me was "4. Elimination of the five-second closely guarded rule." The article lists this under less impactful changes, but I do not agree on that. I this this is a significant change that will have an impact in the long run and makes it even more imperative that we have a really good point guard and backup.

30 second clock pretty much eliminates the need for 5 sec rule.

Disagree. Im with Sean, why take it away. Those plays are often big time momentum swings.
