Proposed NBA rule change?

1 Answer

Answer :

I don’t have much of a problem with the rule as it is; but I wouldn’t oppose what you’re suggesting, either. I was so frustrated by the officiating last season… I hope they find a way to resolve the issues when the ref with the poorest angle on a play is calling a foul that never happened. I recall in the playoffs Dwight Howard made a fantastic block – all ball – and the ref that was on the opposite side of him called a foul. There were a couple other bad calls and non-calls with the Nuggets in the playoffs, too. It was aggravating!
