http://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/ne ws/2... Along with the brackets (and no Ivies, to no one's surprise) are 3 new experimental rules for the NIT 1) Fouls are reset to zero after 10 minutes in each half 2) It now takes 5 fouls to go over the limit in each 10 minute period and the 1 and 1 is eliminated. 3) All re-sets of the 30 second clock in the forecourt (such as after a foul or after a missed shot with an 0-Rebound) are to 20, rather than 30 seconds. What do you think of these proposed changes? |

I think they're awful. Being able to make free throws at crunch time is a huge part of the game. It won't be long until free throws are eliminated all together. |

Well, I hate FTs, so that part is fine with me. Not fond of the clock reset which rewards a team for committing a quick foul. |

I don't believe the clock is reset to 20 unless the shot clock is below 20 at the time of the reset---in other words, I don't think you can commit a foul with 28 seconds left and get a reset to 20. |

I like the proposed changes. But that's a good point about the quick foul. Should probably reset to 20 only if the clock is under 20. |

More solutions in search of problems that don't exist. If the NIT is such a great event, why is it necessary to trick it up? |

These are FIBA rules. If you notice in FIBA ball, they don't allow a breakaway, they'll take the foul in the front court - having more fouls to give over 40 minutes is probably why. They don't have the NBA rule where 2 fouls in the last 2 minutes puts you over the limit. In FIBA and the NBA the shot clock only gets reset to 14 seconds with a 24 sec shot clock - it's like they take the 10 seconds from the backcourt away. Meh. The 1 and 1 is a great part of the game, although in terms of expected value, the inbounds might be better. |
