So you're good with the foul/free throw/foul/free throw drudgery ? Serious question. I can't stand it but not really sure what the solution is. The more I found out about this idea the more I think it's not it.


>I only see this as a potential benefit if one team is down 10

>can eliminate those foulfests and keep both teams playing
>ball, and keep the leading team from going into stall ball
>because they’ve gotta keep scoring to end the game.

Right exactly. But the cons may outweigh the pros.
