After thr Man City ref controversy today, i wondered why the nba doesn’t implement an “advantage” rule.

The NBA wanted to discourage fastbreak fouls with a take foul, but that still stops the fastbreak. Instead the refs should play advantage until the fastbreak is hindered by the foul and asses the take oul anyway after.

Also the goaltending rules can be a bit harsh for the defense, the backboard goaltending call should be erased, most of the time you don’t know if it even has a chance to go in.

    You can re-sign players that you acquired on draft night for any amount of money, but if it’s above the max, it only counts as a max contract on your cap. If the player is traded, their salary reduces to the max. This means that a superstar player gets a bonus for staying with their original team, but loses the bonus if they get moved.

    This promotes front offices lying to players and actively costing them tens of millions of dollars

      How so?

      Players usually aren’t the ones deciding on playing while injured and it also screws them out of money

      It actually pays players more money if they show up to work. And if something catastrophic happens they have a floor they can’t fall below.
