Re: What do you think of the NBA putting in a power play system

No disrespect, but that is a terrible idea, Kobe tapped Paul Pierce's wrist as he drove by "reach, 2 minutes in the box" I would that idea. It would kill basketball

Oh until someone scores a basket? Is this just an alternative to foul shots or something? Just so the game can keep moving.

yea, I would want to eliminate foul shots, they just make the game slower and boring

Ok, whatever, but I still kind of hate this idea, it's like you are already giving the other team what should be free points with the system we have now, this idea seems kind of dumb to me, but what I do know I thought the Patriots and Cowboys would be in the Super Bowl before the season

Re: What do you think of the NBA putting in a power play system

I get what he is saying. The other team would still get a chance at easy points, however it would keep the game moving and fun to watch. I don't think it would work however, unless the NBA created less fouls or something, or lightened up on the fouls. Unlike the NHL, there would be a TON of power plays then.

Funny how you mention that because I'm watching the Bulls-Hornets game right now and the Bulls have their defensive line-up with Hinrich, Thabo, Aaron Gray, Noch, and Gordon (even though he isn't really a defender) in. And it's like half of the stuff this particular group of guys does is a foul, Hinrich, and Thabo are reaching machines, Aaron Gray is out of shape and makes up for by slapping hands, it's like right now it would 4 on 2 basketball because Posey is in right on lol. And that aint basketball

Re: What do you think of the NBA putting in a power play system

Ok I thought of this yesterday we when played basketball in gym class, my gym teacher is the world's worst bball ref and he made an awful on my friend, I went up for a lay-up and he knocked the ball out of my hand, didn't hit me or anything but my teacher called a foul, my friend agrued then he sat out. I think 2-3 penalty for techinals that would 5-4 would acutally work
