You know what would make the NBA more entertaining?

No out of bounds. :D

Sure it ruins the integrity of the game a bit, but you could you imagine if all these gigantic players would have to constantly hustle for the ball? No doubt it would make things a tad more hectic.

i agree the size of the court should be increased, as players nowadays are just bigger. you notice it on the side 3 pointers, players always step outta bounds

power plays, like hockey. Or red cards. AS a result of either or people can play five on four for some time. That would be a time to run up the score
