Shams: NBA is eyeing a rule change to “Transition Take Foul” that would award the team with one FT and possession

[NO-KG-AI]

I don’t know if I like it. One way to stop momentum is to stop a fast break from happening with a foul, just taking the ability away from coaches.

Fouling is breaking the rules. Breaking the rules should never be an advantage. Otherwise, just don't have rules.

I've been watching 2k22 on youtube and they always foul when there's some sort of transition. So hopefully it would help 2k games too.

As someone who plays proAM those players foul on any break opportunity which is extremely annoying.

Is it really breaking the rules when players are allowed to foul 6 times before getting booted?

Yea, that's literally why something is called a foul, because it's against the rules to do it. Is this a serious question?

A foul is an infraction . It’s part of the game not an exploit . It’s like calling a ball or a strike breaking the rules or an exploit .

I can't believe people actually think more fouling is good instead of expecting people to attempt to play defense instead of dead balling a play because they can't defend or messed up lmao.

To me it seems like more hand holding to teams that can’t execute a fast break .
A fast break can occur almost every possession .
This shouldnt even be a question but since the opposing side seems so hardline in their stance.

Btw not all fouls are intentional on a fast break . It’s the fastest play in basketball and your gonna award free throws for plays on the floor.

[queridiculo]

Btw not all fouls are intentional on a fast break .

The rule change specifically targets take fouls.

What’s a take vs a swipe or just play on the ball or a mistimed jersey grab ?
It’s all kinda semantical and we may invent a new flop , the take or transition flop . People will look to take every advantage of this rule .

[bearadonisdna]

There’s been times where I’ve eluded to this this but I think of a great example and firm in my belief , and am calling it now:

A time when the masses were WRONG.

In conclusion This is a horrible rule.
1. Mucks up game play.
2.Fast breaks can occur at a rate not practical to police.
3. Player bait contact all the time and then refs have to differentiate what intentional or accidental. It’s abhorrent to defensive responsibility

It works really well in FIBA. Players adapt and you very rarely see it called and it makes for a better flowing game.

I don’t know how people are saying they don’t like the rule and want to limit fastbreaks.

Don’t FIBa games rarely score on the 100s?
- They allow you to take the ball off the cylinder .
- They need to open up their league but the nba doesn’t need more opening up .

[bearadonisdna]

This is like punishing a pitcher for intentionally walking a guy.
The infraction is the penalty in itself. Now they wanna double dip

[John Murdoch]

Take foul always felt like a Fiba thing too me

They play 40 minute games…

I don’t see the issue? Take fouls happen like once a quarter max. It’s not going to dramatically change the game but it will allow for transition and fastbreaks to actually happen. Right now, it’s an automatic foul and it’s only really come into the league over the last few seasons.

[celtics543]

Just put in a soccer "play on" rule. If the fastbreak fails then award the foul.

[Ice Man]

Please implement this rule. Please.

In the nba a fast break can happen in nearly every possession . It all depends on the player

[bearadonisdna]

Nah , then you gotta differentiate wats a fast break or not .

The offense is already roided up. It can start a dangerous precedent of classifying and tiering normal fouls . What next on emphasis on dunk fouls? 3 point fouls ? Next it will be more of a foul baiting league then it is

You just don't want it because Ayo will be better with it and you hate him

Please the Ayo obsession got me banned from the bulls board . He in not in the tier of discussion for the GB in the playoffs
