NBL Rules that you hate.

I was watching game 3 of the 1996 NBL grand final series between Tigers and Magic and Gaze had 4 fouls midway through the second quarter and stayed on the floor, also I think it was McKinnon or Kelly had 4 fouls in the first half...

Our coaches are too conservative with 5 fouls and we miss out on seeing our best players on court, and we will still get to sing "hit the road jack" or "nananana nananana heyyyyyyyy good bye"

6 fouls would only benefit Mika.

Definitely more game time + 6 fouls to foul out

Bring back the jump ball at start of each quarter as well as normal times and bring on the three point line.

Oh and no thank you to the Dennis Rodman/Korea rules that we heard about last season!

Actually one rule I hate:

- Refs not been more stringent on calling technical fouls

NBA is too tight.

But NBL is too lenient.

Somewhere in between would be nice.

Just infuriates me watching teams and coaches constantly whinge and complain. As a Breakers fan, I would even admit some of our players can be bad.

Goulding is a classic example -- every shot he misses or turnover he commits just has to be the refs fault.

One of the reasons the jump ball was dumped was for double fouls. 2 guys who just belted each other then facing off in a jump ball!

And spin moves don't get called anywhere in Europe on dribble penetration/drives

-blocks not automatically being called goal tends.

-harsher penalties for using chairs

-48mins

-Jumpballs

-People over 7ft get an extra step, we'll call it the Pledger Rule

-No one from Home & Away in the front row.

I'm with Rashad !! I'll add: get refs back to calling the play by the rules, not by the interpretation or the idea of letting the game flow. Stop bastardising the rules just to keep the owners/ superstars happy.

FIBA introduced the arrow rule - its the worst rule change they have implemented that I can ever recall. I would be happy for the NBL to dump that one...

I agree with you all & Bring back the Jump Ball.
