  • Sounds about as likely to happen as George Carlin's plans for fixing baseball: one strike and your out; hit by pitch, and you're out; and randomly placed landmines in the outfield, just to spice things up.

    If you upped the penalty for a foul so that basketball was a more sporting game, you'd miss all of the close contact that makes it such a fast paced game. With the penalties you propose, basketball would be about as boring as baseball, and only slightly more interesting than bowling or curling.

        This one. You can schedule an NBA game in prime time, and not need 7 hours to finish 60 minutes or 9 regulation innings of gameplay. And compared to Golf, the NBA plays at near relativistic speed. (That's even with the foul-a-minute rules.)
