1. Hold refs accountable for power trips 2. Call carry’s and travels 3. Remove 3 second violation 4. Bring back hand checking 5. Fine heavier on load management 6. Make watching games cheaper/more accessible
For me as a european, having to watch 100 ads during a game + the actual game being 48 minutes while the broadcast takes 3 hours (all das ofc), is just a huge pain. Most people i know just watch the full game recaps on known sites.
1. Fiba rules is a must, it is just so boring to see good players not get credit for their great defensive capabilities (at the point where they won't even try to stop someone so we just see a back and forth 3s shootout) 2. Do something about the length of the game, it has become a chore to see a 1min shot clock game last 20mins of real time adding to it the timeouts, fouls (and the time till they actually start with their FT) 3. Make a VAR style reviewing system like in football where the ref doesn't lose time reviewing and getting the wrong calls plus it'd be much quicker This would actually sky rocket the viewership and not make the games feel like hard to watch
Plus for us international fans it would be great if the weekend games that started early actually start from friday, so a 3 day early game NBA schedule would be really nice
Naahh! The sweet idea would be make maximum 3pt shots 40 per team! Regulated like the time outs a team can have. Each team gets 40 and decides how they distribute them on each Quarter. Trust me teams will think twice before they let just anyone take 3s....After your 40 shots are over you are done so you get all your points the tradition 2pts or Free throws. There....I fixed it!
@@peyondiNot gonna happen because then the arena wouldn't be full because people need to finish work/school first. Different on Saturday and Sunday, hence....
You are spot on with the travels not being called. The refs not calling the games clear enough and it looks like they are influenced by gambling. It looks bad
A lot of the problems can be attributed to the refs. Either they call bs foul calls or they don't call obvious violations. The league needs to tighten that up
Just like that rule of 3 seconds in the paint, they don't call it all the times it happens. The biggest problems of the refs is the lack of consistence on the calls.
they are influenced by "deep state" running the NBA consisting of quasi Elites (some coaches players agents media...) Fans see that show is run by Mafia caring only to take away money, and that the sport is in second plan, and it is disgusting. Fans are not stupid to waste time and pay for that shit.

The different court to benefit the home teams' playstyle is a genius idea. This will require players to be VERY creative and really use their fringe parts of a roster.
Yea I LOVE that idea! It actually gives home team an advantage for once, you know given that they would tailor the court to what their players are best at. If teams could have control of the 3pt line and the size of the paint, it would be so interesting to watch teams play in different arenas. Teams with defensive shot blocking bigs like gobert and wemby could shrink the painted area so that their defensive anchors are closer to the basket. Teams like the Celtics could stretch the 3pt line to where any other team wouldn't dare shoot
Too chaotic. I've never seen anything like this anywhere. It's one thing to have Denver's elevation consistently, it's another to constantly change random stuff from game to game. Horrible

Move the normal 3 pointer back about 2 feet and eliminate the corner 3. Also get rid of defensive 3 seconds, clean house with the refs, and bring back hand checking

No. Narrow the lane. Get rid of defensive 3 seconds. Do a few things to get the big guys back in the game. 4 pointers and other stuff like that will kill the game that has already been damaged.
No 3 second violation sounds like the worst idea ever I’m sorry, to combat the already abundance of 3’s, you want to mathematically further make the 3 more valuable than the best shot in basketball which is the layup?? Defensive 3 seconds makes no sense, it’ll push more 3’s than ever
0:55 This narrative is totally wrong. Teams dont play modern type of basketball because its better. They play it because they want to avoid their stars from getting injured. The excessive threes, flopping, open lanes, lack luster defense, load management, boring all star games are just the symptoms of the problem. They dont just want to destroy their golden geese. Its all about money in the end. And theres a lot of money to be saved and to be made by playing terrible basketball.

Limiting the number of 3-pointers per game would force teams to use them more strategically, focusing on mid-range and paint play early, saving 3s for key moments. It’d also cut down on fast-break players settling for 3s instead of taking easy layups.
@@VinceLyle2161 That's a tough one. The league really needs to consider how the new changes will impact how teams are built and which ones will become stronger or weaker. Take Dallas, for example. They signed Klay Thompson for $50 million, but if the game shifts away from the 3-point heavy style, they could be in trouble since Klay’s primarily a spot-up shooter and there would be less floor spacing. Similarly, teams like the Timberwolves, who will be heavily reliant on players like Rudy Gobert, might see a drop-off. What once looked like a potential conference finalist could easily find themselves struggling to even make the play-in tournament.
@@BestxBelieve Good points. What about twenty? That's ten per half per team. You'd see coaches calling plays for them. They could be rally-killers, nails in the coffin, etc. It would be better if 3 pointers were back to being strategic weapons, the way Larry Bird used them. Or psychological warfare, also like Larry Bird used them.

If you score off a steal, two pointers get an extra point, 2) a block subtracts a point 3) a 3 pointer becomes only worth two points unless contested or shootee creates his own separation *uncontested 3s only worth 3 points past 33-35 feet(Call it the Curry Rule) 4) deflections out of bounds gets called as jump ball 5) alley oops in clutch time (last 1.5 minutes in each half woth 3 5) Healthy load managed players have to come off bench the next 2-3 games until 2nd half after return from absence (you screw the fans you disadvantage your teams standings)
Give more leniency to defence than it is rn, get rid of goaltending, put the 3 point line further back so the percentages go down, get rid of taunting Techs, get rid of the play in, instead of 5 second violations and give it 7 or 8 seconds. And for the love of god stop flopping or give the player who flops a personal foul and give the other team one free throw like a flagrant foul.

If they put in a four point line, 50% of shots would be four pointers shooting at a 24% rate. Scoring would go up, but people would have to watch people MISS 76% of their shots
As a european thats been watching both NBA and european competitions the biggest thing that ruins the NBA is reffere inconsistencies and blatant score fixing to keep matches as close as posible till clutch time, it doesent make regural season games apealing to me at all and its even creeping into the playoffs, no wonder ratings are down people started to realise they are watching reality tv instead of sports.
love every rule but...there's no possibility to call step backs a travel. the james harden double step back WAS NOT a travel because he gathered then did the actual step backs. l

I really think better officiating would do wonders. A huge benefit people don’t talk about is the fact when you drive, if you’re a star in the league you’re most likely getting a call so the game stops, you get an and 1 or free throw opportunity. The contact or lack of contact is so freaking frustrating. However, I’m a suns fan and I see Book, Beal, KD (few of the last mid range guys) fight through contact on midrange shots and get no calls. I’m starting to get frustrated at them for taking that shot because they can get hit and throw off the shot with no call
Get rid of the corner 3. That stops 5 out offenses. Then make the all-star game World vs USA. You can take it a step farther. Make the winning team the NBA all-stars and the losing team is just conference all-stars. Thus the winning team is the only one who qualifies for the supermax.

I think the nba needs to do something to speed up the game at the end. I’ve seen waaaay too many games have 1:30 left in the clock that I end up watching for 30 minutes. Easily the worst watching experience. As opposed to those games where both teams have no timeouts and there’s 30 seconds left and nobody wants to foul cause it’s a 1 possession game, it’s absolutely the most exciting thing to watch
No one is mentioning the Majority of Late game situations are killed ever since they Foul up 3 with seconds left, This always Kills the best part of the game, ever since Jj and Lebron mentioned to do this on podcast its become an annoying thing done now this season, It kills what the game lives for those buzzer beater moments
My ideas are drastic but i think they would work Regular season wins earn points and decide playoff seeding. 4 games against each team in division and 2 against everyone else (with 32 teams that would be 66 games total, more rest for players so they play a higher percentage of games and less filler games that drag out the season for the fans) Each win is 3 points. +1 point against conference opponents. +2 against division opponents. Losses dont add or subtract points. In season tournament is 6 games to decide seeding (2 games vs each team in division, so high points at stake.). Then single elimination playoff of every winner in each division where the nba cup winner gets the “crown”. Crown holder gets +1 extra point for every win and teams that beat the crown holder get an extra point. This incentivizes teams to win the tournament as it affects playoff seeding. They also get the massive cash payout too. This would brew rivalries and put more stakes on games and can be advertised as such (this PLATINUM TIER game has 6 points on the line) All star game should lean into fun rotating formats to experiment with weird rules to see how they work out. 4 pt line. Missed 3s subtract a point. Fiba rules. Every 3 made pushes the line further back with LED court, Defensive stops subtracting a point etc. If not that, then the winner of the game awards their conference +1 extra points per win vs opposing conference which would help decide home court advantage in the finals. Winner of nba finals gets takes the crown and starts next season with it.
They need to start with getting rid of defensive 3 seconds and also telling refs to call less fouls. Do the obvious stuff before getting crazy with rule changes that just make the game seem like a gimmick.
Lmao at the Substitution one. Imagine if Steph is having a beef with somebody, then suddenly he tags Draymond from the bench and he does a clothesline to the the player 💀💀
The problem that is often overlooked with shooting all of these three-pointers is that let's say for example, a team went 14 of 40. Out of those 26 misses 10 to 15. Of them were easy two-point field goals that were passed up for a worse percentage 3 point attempt
What you fail to understand, shooting those less efficient 3s is actually good on a meta game perspective, ie: stretch the floor + conditionning defenses
3 pointers stretch the defense. If ball 5 guys can shoot the three their gravity alone opens up the floor. The math says that 3 pointers provide more points per possession than 2s unless you’re an elite inside scorer
Reading all the comments just show 90% of "fans" these days are casuals and kids that say dumb stuff. Casey included but he says dumb stuff all the time.
The real issue with the NBA is that there are way too many meaningless games. Baseball has a ton of games but only have 12 playoffs teams. Meaningless games = uninterested Players = Load Management = Intentional Ejections. All the problems eventually boils down to players only caring in the playoffs and literally everyone makes the playoffs or play in games in the NBA. Only 6 teams from each conference makes the playoffs, top 2 teams get first round bye...then you'll see real change.
The way fantasy awards players 3 points for a steal or block should be applied to today’s NBA. It will emphasize defensive natured players and will change the way offences would be executed to avoid interceptions during careless ball movement. Ultimately it would slow the game down and would keep the audiences attention for longer spans. Essentially a team would lose 3 points for having a shot blocked or a possession stolen. The counting stats for steals and blocks would accumulate the same way in the box score.
About the video: 1. *No to 4 pt or 5 pt* shot 2. *No to 3pt dunk* 3. *No to one-on-one scrimmage* instead of overtime games..

People love to claim there's no defense in this era. Funny I don't remember having to guard anyone 40 feet from the basket in the 90s. I think there needs to be a line behind the 3 point line that decreases the value back to 2.

So one of the biggest problems with the game today - according to most people - is that the players are shooting too many threes. And the answer to that is to create a 4pt line? Make it make sense

@ so you want to place a limitation on how many threes you can take per game as an official rule and you want the refs to manage when they can and can’t take them? I don’t think problem solving is your specialty.
@HllywoodNova I know I'm Jesus H. Fcukng Christ and I'm spreading the Gospel of this around the world. See you are now saved you saw the word of the lord. Stay blessed! ✋
Add a 1 pt line within 5 ft from the basket for example. Now all shot are worth about the same when you account for percentages. You get your jump shots back, and each team can play a unique style of offense given their team strengths.
To make the Nba more watchable is easy. Take away power from players and give it to coaches. Make the players sweat for their money instead of missing so many games. more physicality allowed in rules would actually improve perimeter defense and therefore decrease importance of 3s
I like some rules changes you propose. Anything though that is not 5v5 bball will and should not happen (1v1 or bringing the coach) I like the substitution rule, given you MUST stay behind the line before you enter in order to do the substitution. Check out team handball, they have these rules and it's really fun to watch. You've got defensive specialist only coming for games and only defensive / transition players. I think one of the issue is the defense is not valued in the rules as it should. Allowing hand checking is a start. They should go further and change the fouling system: 1) Any foul is not 2 free throw unless you are in a realistic position to shoot. 2) The foul don't add up which means you can foul how many times you want in a game. (because why penalize players that are playing hard) 3) A foul that is excessive or anti-sport is 1 free throw and 30 seconds temporary exclusion. (a technical would be an anti-sport foul) 4) A flagrant 1 is 1 minute temporary exclusion and 2 free throw. (no keeping the possession) 5) A flagrant 2 is an def temporary exclusion with 2 free throw. (no keeping the possession) 6) 4 excessive foul OR 2 flagrant 1 would result in a flagrant 2. 7) A foul, for instance, in front of the player would just be in-bouding the ball from where you want to help the offense get set. 8) A foul in transition essentially preventing an easy basket will be considered an excessive foul. (otherwise players would be fouling intentionally in transition to break a play) I think that would force team to play harder on defense. What do you think?
If you change the scoring of 2 and 3 points, then you also have to change the scoring from the line where the first shot is one point and the second shot is two points
I think an interesting change would be that teams are only allowed to take a certain number of 3’s per game like 35. Which is plenty but especially in clutch game situations 3’s might need to be conserved for absolutely essential situations instead of being free to chuck up whenever. Another one I heard and found interesting was if your team misses a certain amount of 3’s in a row, like 3-4 and your team actually loses points like 1-2
1. Increase active players to 6 per team instead of 5. 2. Extend the court dimensions with variable min/max sizes to give home teams a strategic advantage, similar to soccer. 3. Reduce playoff spots from 10 to 6 or 8 to increase competition and discourage coasting through the season. 4. Schedule NBA games only on weekends; too many midweek games dilute quality. 5. Hold NBA Cup games separately on weekdays, outside regular-season matches. The NBA should take cues from European soccer's structure and strategy.
1) let players be more expressive and passionate 2) punish players for losing or performing poorly we have to make the players care about the game and not act like they are just there for a paycheck to start their own podcasts
The reason why there's so many points is because offense has evolved to the point that the defense cant keep up thanks to the rules. To keep up with the offense, the rules should allow defense to be able to stop said offense. 1. CALL ILLEGAL SCREENS - the amount of illegal screens not being called is stupid. This will help lessen the amount of not just 3pters but points in general 2. Allow more physical off ball and on ball defense - bring back hand checking - If someone wants to get to a good position inside before receiving the ball, they have to fight for position inside by boxing out their opponent. 3. Less Fouls - defenders should be allowed to block a player's path if they do not have the ball. - if your block merely touches the shooter's hand, it's not a foul. Only call it if its the arm or body. - STOP CALLING TECHNICAL FOULS. As a ref, its part of your job to IGNORE/DEAL WITH THE COMPLAINING THE PLAYERS DO. only start calling technicals if they become so aggressive like running at you or if they touch you (holding, blocking your way, etc.) The FIBA rules that allow defenders to camp the paint is also pretty good. Add that with better on -ball and off-ball defense and the nba will be more competitive again.
The interior paint could be smaller but if a player scores inside that paint its 3pointer . Just to counter high volume 3pts. So that we can see more fastbreaks and post seals.
two things i didn't know this video taught me 1. three point line is actually shorter distance from the basket in the corner than at the top 2. baseball fields are literally different and teams actually strategize their teams around that (what the hell)
I don’t know why this hasn’t mentioned yet, but here’s my idea: Cap the amount of 3’s teams can attempt in a game. I don’t know what the right cap would be, but if it were, say, 32 (8 per quarter max) then teams would have to strategize more. That would also bring back actual strategy and team-oriented basketball. I mean, if they aren’t going to play defense, capping 3’s might be the next best bet.
I think it would be better to cap the amount they can make per quarter rather than take. And that the next three made above the cap actually just counts as a 2.
The viewership isn’t down. The only problem is that they can’t count viewers that watch the game through streams or other undocumented ways. The solution would be to stop charging people and arm and leg to watch and support their favorite team. Even with the NBA League pass being as expensive as it is…. Your home team games are blocked out.
Watching 3s all game is boring as hell. My favorite team is Boston and I stopped watching them. A second big thing is constant breaks. A couple of days ago I tuned in to watch the Bucks vs the Pacers and 5 seconds in they went into an ad, so I watched something else for a few minutes and came back, again, a few seconds after there is another break, so I watch something else for a few minutes, then tuned back in, literally 3 possessions later there is a phantom coach's challenge where the other team's coach stepped onto the court and that's an automatic time-out which he didn't mean to take, he just thought that a coach's challenge got called by the other team and you can't reverse it, another mandatory ad break. That did it for me.
Fiba style would be a sensible change that also finally aligns basketball worldwide. This also needs to go along with making the court slightly smaller, as it is everywhere else in the world, which in turn also helps defenses against the 3pt shot because defenders will be having shorter distances to close out on shooters. And the drives will not be met with zero resistance either.
Interesting ideas! Cool video. I like this combo: Draw your own three point lane, put the hand checks back in, and three points for a dunk. I’m not down with the 4-pointer either though.
It’s from all the game stoppage. If tune in to a game there is a likely chance that you will land on a break from whether a time-out or an officials review. I suggest to move all this to the 4th quarter and during the quarter breaks. Plus the time-outs are too long that is why coaches only run a short line-up.
Allow only one corner to have the 3 point line and each team decides which side it is. This makes it much easier to defend that one corner and you can ignore the other corner.
Get rid of corner 3. Get rid of gather step. Make flopping a technical. Eradicate load management. Limit three pointers to within three feet of the arc.
FIBA style rules and better refs would already be a huuuuge improvement over what we have now. Then we'd may have to find a way to make the game more diverse and less 3pt centered, I guess removing corner 3s are a realistic idea. Extending the line to the sideline is better than widening the floor in my opinion, because making the floor even bigger would make defense even harder.
1. Allow more physical defense and allow incidental defensive contact if it doesn't affect the shot 2. Aggressive technicals for even minimal flopping 3. Aggressive travel and carry violations 4. Purposeful fouls are also technical fouls (stop prolonging end of games with boring free-throws) And off the court rules: 1. Player contracts must have a per game clause, you don't play you don't get paid, with limited PTO for sick and rest days 2. A referree representative must be interviewed at end of games 3. Contracts have to have a penalty for initiating trades (if the player asks for a trade, part of their salary is non-garanteed. if a team initiated the trade for their player, they have to pay the difference non-garanteed amount to the player)
Most people get paid by the hour but then get paid by the minute every minute they ain't playing every minute they're losing money see how bad it won't play then😂
I agree with #1 and #2 in realistic. The alot of 6:04 problems with the modern nba is that defensive strategies cant keep up with the optimized offense. Removing defensive 3 seconds and bringing back hand checks makes defense stronger. I dont think eliminating corner 3 altogether is necessary if they implement that. Though they have to do something to nerf corner 3. 3 point dunk is crazy, but it does incentivize the players to make the game more exciting. If thats gonna be done, it should only be contested dunks
why not just add a 4-point line. and then, to balance things out and to prevent teams from just hoisting from way deep, have a 3-point dunk as well. but not just any dunk though. maybe 3-points for contact dunks or dunks that are contested.
Change the 3 point shot to a 2.5 point shot is perfect. Less overtimes, it's equal to 50% 2 point=40% 3 point. Which is perfect ratio. Plus no court demension changes that would effect the paint protection, making easy lanes.
there once a league here in the philippines that introduce blitz 3, score in under 3 seconds and its counted as 3pts they even have a sounds that signifies you did it
I love baseball analytics and sabermetrics. Is there really a pushback against the banning of the shift? I think it was obviously necessary. I also love that they made the bases bigger and wider to encourage more action on the base paths.
All the realistic rules are really good!! We are obsessed with scoring. More points is not better makes scoring less exciting, and makes players that score well less valuable and defenders less valuable.

the PBA is already doing it.
@@notfamosnahhh not good enough lay ups worth 10 points!.
They literally said the same thing about the 3 pointer
For me as a european, having to watch 100 ads during a game + the actual game being 48 minutes while the broadcast takes 3 hours (all das ofc), is just a huge pain. Most people i know just watch the full game recaps on known sites.
1. Fiba rules is a must, it is just so boring to see good players not get credit for their great defensive capabilities (at the point where they won't even try to stop someone so we just see a back and forth 3s shootout)
2. Do something about the length of the game, it has become a chore to see a 1min shot clock game last 20mins of real time adding to it the timeouts, fouls (and the time till they actually start with their FT)
3. Make a VAR style reviewing system like in football where the ref doesn't lose time reviewing and getting the wrong calls plus it'd be much quicker
This would actually sky rocket the viewership and not make the games feel like hard to watch
Plus for us international fans it would be great if the weekend games that started early actually start from friday, so a 3 day early game NBA schedule would be really nice

You are spot on with the travels not being called. The refs not calling the games clear enough and it looks like they are influenced by gambling. It looks bad
This is the #1 problem. You don’t need to change the entire game of basketball to solve the problem.
Elimínate the damn refs
A lot of the problems can be attributed to the refs. Either they call bs foul calls or they don't call obvious violations. The league needs to tighten that up
Just like that rule of 3 seconds in the paint, they don't call it all the times it happens. The biggest problems of the refs is the lack of consistence on the calls.
they are influenced by "deep state" running the NBA consisting of quasi Elites (some coaches players agents media...)
Fans see that show is run by Mafia caring only to take away money, and that the sport is in second plan, and it is disgusting.
Fans are not stupid to waste time and pay for that shit.
Every team drawing their own 3 pt line is wild but so cool

usa vs serbia was legit the best game of basketball i have ever seen
The different court to benefit the home teams' playstyle is a genius idea. This will require players to be VERY creative and really use their fringe parts of a roster.
Yea I LOVE that idea! It actually gives home team an advantage for once, you know given that they would tailor the court to what their players are best at. If teams could have control of the 3pt line and the size of the paint, it would be so interesting to watch teams play in different arenas. Teams with defensive shot blocking bigs like gobert and wemby could shrink the painted area so that their defensive anchors are closer to the basket. Teams like the Celtics could stretch the 3pt line to where any other team wouldn't dare shoot
Home team would have way too much of an advantage.
Too chaotic. I've never seen anything like this anywhere.
It's one thing to have Denver's elevation consistently, it's another to constantly change random stuff from game to game. Horrible

@@jojothepolyglot1866so what happens if you make a mistake and shoot from 3 and make it? Who gets the ball?
Move the normal 3 pointer back about 2 feet and eliminate the corner 3. Also get rid of defensive 3 seconds, clean house with the refs, and bring back hand checking
Yes, this is the easiest and best solution

No corner 3's are the easiest shot
It crazy that nobody thinks half of the air time shouldn't be ads.
Legit and even on league pass that should be ad free having ads all the time
Ikr
And even the other half you see ads everywhere. Floor, scoreboard, jerseys, side of the court
No. Narrow the lane. Get rid of defensive 3 seconds. Do a few things to get the big guys back in the game. 4 pointers and other stuff like that will kill the game that has already been damaged.
Why would you not one your big to shoot 3 its spaces the floor. You’d be a terrible coach
That would literally force 3ps, if there a big standing in the lane we have to shoot 3s
No 3 second violation sounds like the worst idea ever I’m sorry, to combat the already abundance of 3’s, you want to mathematically further make the 3 more valuable than the best shot in basketball which is the layup?? Defensive 3 seconds makes no sense, it’ll push more 3’s than ever
0:55 This narrative is totally wrong. Teams dont play modern type of basketball because its better. They play it because they want to avoid their stars from getting injured.
The excessive threes, flopping, open lanes, lack luster defense, load management, boring all star games are just the symptoms of the problem. They dont just want to destroy their golden geese. Its all about money in the end. And theres a lot of money to be saved and to be made by playing terrible basketball.
If they get rid of defensive 3 they will score even more points!!!!!! They play no defence already! Makes no sense
Brick a three and your team loses a point
that's actually a good idea😂

Yes. This and bringing back hand checking
Just applying the rules: calling traveling, carrying, ... would be fine.
Agreed but moving the 3 point line back (a little bit) and having it hit the sideline is a good idea too. The corner 3 is too easy for these guys
Limiting the number of 3-pointers per game would force teams to use them more strategically, focusing on mid-range and paint play early, saving 3s for key moments. It’d also cut down on fast-break players settling for 3s instead of taking easy layups.
I love it. What's your number for 3's per game?
@@VinceLyle2161 That's a tough one. The league really needs to consider how the new changes will impact how teams are built and which ones will become stronger or weaker. Take Dallas, for example. They signed Klay Thompson for $50 million, but if the game shifts away from the 3-point heavy style, they could be in trouble since Klay’s primarily a spot-up shooter and there would be less floor spacing. Similarly, teams like the Timberwolves, who will be heavily reliant on players like Rudy Gobert, might see a drop-off. What once looked like a potential conference finalist could easily find themselves struggling to even make the play-in tournament.
@@BestxBelieve Good points. What about twenty? That's ten per half per team. You'd see coaches calling plays for them. They could be rally-killers, nails in the coffin, etc. It would be better if 3 pointers were back to being strategic weapons, the way Larry Bird used them. Or psychological warfare, also like Larry Bird used them.

If you score off a steal, two pointers get an extra point, 2) a block subtracts a point 3) a 3 pointer becomes only worth two points unless contested or shootee creates his own separation *uncontested 3s only worth 3 points past 33-35 feet(Call it the Curry Rule) 4) deflections out of bounds gets called as jump ball 5) alley oops in clutch time (last 1.5 minutes in each half woth 3 5) Healthy load managed players have to come off bench the next 2-3 games until 2nd half after return from absence (you screw the fans you disadvantage your teams standings)
making a 3 worth 4 and a 2 worth three turns the three point shot premium from 50% to only 33% i think that’s a good fix

And for the love of god stop flopping or give the player who flops a personal foul and give the other team one free throw like a flagrant foul.

Greedy execs ruining the league as well. I get the NBA is a business, but damn let basketball be for the people, not your pockets
If they put in a four point line, 50% of shots would be four pointers shooting at a 24% rate. Scoring would go up, but people would have to watch people MISS 76% of their shots
Thats possible but its more likely they would just value shots near the basket more
As a european thats been watching both NBA and european competitions the biggest thing that ruins the NBA is reffere inconsistencies and blatant score fixing to keep matches as close as posible till clutch time, it doesent make regural season games apealing to me at all and its even creeping into the playoffs, no wonder ratings are down people started to realise they are watching reality tv instead of sports.
1. Get rid of defense 3 seconds
2. Allow hand checks
3. Call travels and carries
4. Step back 3's are now a travel
5. Reduce the number of timeouts
love every rule but...there's no possibility to call step backs a travel. the james harden double step back WAS NOT a travel because he gathered then did the actual step backs. l

Thank god you don’t work for the NBA 😭
3 of the 5 you listed are absurd....
I know it’s unrealistic but hear me out. Make a 30ft 4 point line and get rid of the 3 point line.
I really think better officiating would do wonders. A huge benefit people don’t talk about is the fact when you drive, if you’re a star in the league you’re most likely getting a call so the game stops, you get an and 1 or free throw opportunity. The contact or lack of contact is so freaking frustrating. However, I’m a suns fan and I see Book, Beal, KD (few of the last mid range guys) fight through contact on midrange shots and get no calls. I’m starting to get frustrated at them for taking that shot because they can get hit and throw off the shot with no call
I love this video. Might not be the most viewed, but creates more loyal watchers, and i am sure make you feel you better too.
Balance of videos.
Get rid of the corner 3. That stops 5 out offenses. Then make the all-star game World vs USA.
You can take it a step farther. Make the winning team the NBA all-stars and the losing team is just conference all-stars. Thus the winning team is the only one who qualifies for the supermax.

great video! awesome ideas too, this would make the nba so fun
I think the nba needs to do something to speed up the game at the end. I’ve seen waaaay too many games have 1:30 left in the clock that I end up watching for 30 minutes. Easily the worst watching experience. As opposed to those games where both teams have no timeouts and there’s 30 seconds left and nobody wants to foul cause it’s a 1 possession game, it’s absolutely the most exciting thing to watch
100%
No one is mentioning the Majority of Late game situations are killed ever since they Foul up 3 with seconds left, This always Kills the best part of the game, ever since Jj and Lebron mentioned to do this on podcast its become an annoying thing done now this season, It kills what the game lives for those buzzer beater moments
@ intentional fouls at the end of the game should be a tech in my opinion. automatics free throws and the ball back. I think that might stop it
My ideas are drastic but i think they would work
Regular season wins earn points and decide playoff seeding.
4 games against each team in division and 2 against everyone else (with 32 teams that would be 66 games total, more rest for players so they play a higher percentage of games and less filler games that drag out the season for the fans)
Each win is 3 points.
+1 point against conference opponents. +2 against division opponents. Losses dont add or subtract points.
In season tournament is 6 games to decide seeding (2 games vs each team in division, so high points at stake.). Then single elimination playoff of every winner in each division where the nba cup winner gets the “crown”. Crown holder gets +1 extra point for every win and teams that beat the crown holder get an extra point. This incentivizes teams to win the tournament as it affects playoff seeding. They also get the massive cash payout too.
This would brew rivalries and put more stakes on games and can be advertised as such (this PLATINUM TIER game has 6 points on the line)
All star game should lean into fun rotating formats to experiment with weird rules to see how they work out. 4 pt line. Missed 3s subtract a point. Fiba rules. Every 3 made pushes the line further back with LED court, Defensive stops subtracting a point etc.
If not that, then the winner of the game awards their conference +1 extra points per win vs opposing conference which would help decide home court advantage in the finals.
Winner of nba finals gets takes the crown and starts next season with it.
They need to start with getting rid of defensive 3 seconds and also telling refs to call less fouls. Do the obvious stuff before getting crazy with rule changes that just make the game seem like a gimmick.
Lmao at the Substitution one. Imagine if Steph is having a beef with somebody, then suddenly he tags Draymond from the bench and he does a clothesline to the the player 💀💀
Kinda like the teams make their own 3 point line idea…..it is somewhat similar to baseball parks
The duncan robinson shot at 5:04 is 100 percent legal on all levels and is not a travel
The problem that is often overlooked with shooting all of these three-pointers is that let's say for example, a team went 14 of 40. Out of those 26 misses 10 to 15. Of them were easy two-point field goals that were passed up for a worse percentage 3 point attempt
What you fail to understand, shooting those less efficient 3s is actually good on a meta game perspective, ie: stretch the floor + conditionning defenses
3 pointers stretch the defense. If ball 5 guys can shoot the three their gravity alone opens up the floor. The math says that 3 pointers provide more points per possession than 2s unless you’re an elite inside scorer
Well, in the Philippines... 4 point shot is already in action... Analyst says here that it spreads the court more for chances to go inside...
Reading all the comments just show 90% of "fans" these days are casuals and kids that say dumb stuff. Casey included but he says dumb stuff all the time.
What about every Miss 3 pointer is a -1
Good idea !!
The real issue with the NBA is that there are way too many meaningless games. Baseball has a ton of games but only have 12 playoffs teams. Meaningless games = uninterested Players = Load Management = Intentional Ejections. All the problems eventually boils down to players only caring in the playoffs and literally everyone makes the playoffs or play in games in the NBA. Only 6 teams from each conference makes the playoffs, top 2 teams get first round bye...then you'll see real change.
Interesting idea!
The way fantasy awards players 3 points for a steal or block should be applied to today’s NBA. It will emphasize defensive natured players and will change the way offences would be executed to avoid interceptions during careless ball movement. Ultimately it would slow the game down and would keep the audiences attention for longer spans.
Essentially a team would lose 3 points for having a shot blocked or a possession stolen. The counting stats for steals and blocks would accumulate the same way in the box score.
About the video:
1. *No to 4 pt or 5 pt* shot
2. *No to 3pt dunk*
3. *No to one-on-one scrimmage* instead of overtime games.. (although it is _really_ interesting,.. maybe implement it during the in-season tournament, or maybe all-star games, but not during other regular games, and definitely not during playoff games)
On defense:
4. *Reward good defense.* No ridiculous touch foul calls
5. Penalize moving *(illegal) screen*
6. Penalize *defensive 3 sec* violation
On offense:
7. James Harden rule #1. *Penalize flopping* and foul hunting, monetarily and with games suspension
8. James Harden rule #2. *Penalize offensive arm locks,* monetarily and with games suspension
9. Dwayne Wade rule. Penalize offensive player that tries to *undercut a defensive player* after a fake shot
10. *Penalize travelling and double dribbles,* using 80's-90's definition of travelling and double dribbles
11. *Penalize offensive 3 sec* violations
On player accountability:
12. *Retract the supermax..*
→can't retain a good team anymore, bec 1/3 of the roster money is just on few players that more often than not regresses in gameplay
→the Supermax was supposed to reward stars loyal to the teams, yet they leave anyway.
→ all other problems will be solved by retracting the supermax: which are.. luxury tax ceiling and first and second aprons
13. -Supermax- Maximum contract for players should be *guaranteed ONLY if they stay with the team;*
→ -supermax- maximum contract should be non guaranteed, should revert to low contract *if player demands a trade,*
→ Ben Simmons rule. -supermax- maximum contract should be conditional; should be nullified for those who refuse to play.
→ Zion Williamson rule. -supermax- maximum contract should be conditional to force players into competitive form
14. Should be Maximum Bonus instead of supermax. Getting rewarded for winning instead of guarantee for nothing accomplished. 🤷
15. Grant Hill rule. Better player injury diagnosis. Not that players only realize their injuries during mandatory checkups during trades
16. Ja Morant rule. -Penalize players- Penalize 'thugs' or wannabes
17. No politics. Fans pays for players, not players paying the fans. Players should know their place, should respect their viewers, should know how to act like professionals
On officials' accountability:
18. Joe Crawford rule. Penalize power tripping officials. (Always getting away with bad calls)
19. Investigate and penalize gambling officials.. (the way they are calling is too suspicious..) they could gamble if it's not NBA games.
On All Star Weekend:
20. Penalize ridiculousness of slam dunk judges. (Judges ruined the dunk contest since 2000's.)
21. Make all-star games competitive. (80's and 90's style)
22. Bring back East vs. West rivalry

Great video. No one wants to disrupt the game in an extreme way, but something needs to change.
"Whoever shoots the Most 3's is Gay"
That would make Steph shoot more 3s
Add a 1 pt line within 5 ft from the basket for example. Now all shot are worth about the same when you account for percentages. You get your jump shots back, and each team can play a unique style of offense given their team strengths.
So no more layups and dunks?
1pt is a 50% decrease. Nobody would go for them
honestly the Coach shooting for the other coaches tech would be awesome.
To make the Nba more watchable is easy. Take away power from players and give it to coaches. Make the players sweat for their money instead of missing so many games. more physicality allowed in rules would actually improve perimeter defense and therefore decrease importance of 3s
I like some rules changes you propose.
Anything though that is not 5v5 bball will and should not happen (1v1 or bringing the coach)
I like the substitution rule, given you MUST stay behind the line before you enter in order to do the substitution. Check out team handball, they have these rules and it's really fun to watch. You've got defensive specialist only coming for games and only defensive / transition players.
I think one of the issue is the defense is not valued in the rules as it should. Allowing hand checking is a start.
They should go further and change the fouling system:
1) Any foul is not 2 free throw unless you are in a realistic position to shoot.
2) The foul don't add up which means you can foul how many times you want in a game. (because why penalize players that are playing hard)
3) A foul that is excessive or anti-sport is 1 free throw and 30 seconds temporary exclusion. (a technical would be an anti-sport foul)
4) A flagrant 1 is 1 minute temporary exclusion and 2 free throw. (no keeping the possession)
5) A flagrant 2 is an def temporary exclusion with 2 free throw. (no keeping the possession)
6) 4 excessive foul OR 2 flagrant 1 would result in a flagrant 2.
7) A foul, for instance, in front of the player would just be in-bouding the ball from where you want to help the offense get set.
8) A foul in transition essentially preventing an easy basket will be considered an excessive foul. (otherwise players would be fouling intentionally in transition to break a play)
I think that would force team to play harder on defense. What do you think?
If you change the scoring of 2 and 3 points, then you also have to change the scoring from the line where the first shot is one point and the second shot is two points
I think an interesting change would be that teams are only allowed to take a certain number of 3’s per game like 35. Which is plenty but especially in clutch game situations 3’s might need to be conserved for absolutely essential situations instead of being free to chuck up whenever.
Another one I heard and found interesting was if your team misses a certain amount of 3’s in a row, like 3-4 and your team actually loses points like 1-2
1. Increase active players to 6 per team instead of 5.
2. Extend the court dimensions with variable min/max sizes to give home teams a strategic advantage, similar to soccer.
3. Reduce playoff spots from 10 to 6 or 8 to increase competition and discourage coasting through the season.
4. Schedule NBA games only on weekends; too many midweek games dilute quality.
5. Hold NBA Cup games separately on weekdays, outside regular-season matches.
The NBA should take cues from European soccer's structure and strategy.
1) let players be more expressive and passionate
2) punish players for losing or performing poorly
we have to make the players care about the game and not act like they are just there for a paycheck to start their own podcasts
The reason why there's so many points is because offense has evolved to the point that the defense cant keep up thanks to the rules.
To keep up with the offense, the rules should allow defense to be able to stop said offense.
1. CALL ILLEGAL SCREENS
- the amount of illegal screens not being called is stupid. This will help lessen the amount of not just 3pters but points in general
2. Allow more physical off ball and on ball defense
- bring back hand checking
- If someone wants to get to a good position inside before receiving the ball, they have to fight for position inside by boxing out their opponent.
3. Less Fouls
- defenders should be allowed to block a player's path if they do not have the ball.
- if your block merely touches the shooter's hand, it's not a foul. Only call it if its the arm or body.
- STOP CALLING TECHNICAL FOULS. As a ref, its part of your job to IGNORE/DEAL WITH THE COMPLAINING THE PLAYERS DO.
only start calling technicals if they become so aggressive like running at you or if they touch you (holding, blocking your way, etc.)
The FIBA rules that allow defenders to camp the paint is also pretty good. Add that with better on -ball and off-ball defense and the nba will be more competitive again.
The interior paint could be smaller but if a player scores inside that paint its 3pointer . Just to counter high volume 3pts. So that we can see more fastbreaks and post seals.
4 points for shots in ur own half
Corner threes are harder to hit because you don't have the backboard to either bounce off, or to use as a reference point when you take the throw.
two things i didn't know this video taught me
1. three point line is actually shorter distance from the basket in the corner than at the top
2. baseball fields are literally different and teams actually strategize their teams around that (what the hell)
There is no such thing as an illegal defense and the comparison to outfield walls would make athletes become more valuable. I love these ideas.
I don’t know why this hasn’t mentioned yet, but here’s my idea: Cap the amount of 3’s teams can attempt in a game. I don’t know what the right cap would be, but if it were, say, 32 (8 per quarter max) then teams would have to strategize more. That would also bring back actual strategy and team-oriented basketball. I mean, if they aren’t going to play defense, capping 3’s might be the next best bet.
I think it would be better to cap the amount they can make per quarter rather than take. And that the next three made above the cap actually just counts as a 2.
I don't like limiting the game like this
The substitution idea is amazing. Like I really love it
Players need to play difficult & hard then they will earn my respect and views.
The viewership isn’t down. The only problem is that they can’t count viewers that watch the game through streams or other undocumented ways. The solution would be to stop charging people and arm and leg to watch and support their favorite team. Even with the NBA League pass being as expensive as it is…. Your home team games are blocked out.
Removing the corner 3 sounds good to me, nice video 👍👍
coach tech free-throw would be kinda cool 😂
Watching 3s all game is boring as hell. My favorite team is Boston and I stopped watching them. A second big thing is constant breaks. A couple of days ago I tuned in to watch the Bucks vs the Pacers and 5 seconds in they went into an ad, so I watched something else for a few minutes and came back, again, a few seconds after there is another break, so I watch something else for a few minutes, then tuned back in, literally 3 possessions later there is a phantom coach's challenge where the other team's coach stepped onto the court and that's an automatic time-out which he didn't mean to take, he just thought that a coach's challenge got called by the other team and you can't reverse it, another mandatory ad break. That did it for me.
Fiba style would be a sensible change that also finally aligns basketball worldwide. This also needs to go along with making the court slightly smaller, as it is everywhere else in the world, which in turn also helps defenses against the 3pt shot because defenders will be having shorter distances to close out on shooters. And the drives will not be met with zero resistance either.
Great video for great ideas!!
Love the way you painted a good night gambling with the fam 💯
1v1 free throws and overtime = highest ratings ever
Loving the houston rockets snipplets in the edits like fred headbutting alpi
Interesting ideas! Cool video.
I like this combo:
Draw your own three point lane, put the hand checks back in, and three points for a dunk.
I’m not down with the 4-pointer either though.
It’s from all the game stoppage. If tune in to a game there is a likely chance that you will land on a break from whether a time-out or an officials review. I suggest to move all this to the 4th quarter and during the quarter breaks. Plus the time-outs are too long that is why coaches only run a short line-up.
Allow only one corner to have the 3 point line and each team decides which side it is. This makes it much easier to defend that one corner and you can ignore the other corner.
Get rid of corner 3. Get rid of gather step. Make flopping a technical. Eradicate load management. Limit three pointers to within three feet of the arc.
FIBA style rules and better refs would already be a huuuuge improvement over what we have now.
Then we'd may have to find a way to make the game more diverse and less 3pt centered, I guess removing corner 3s are a realistic idea. Extending the line to the sideline is better than widening the floor in my opinion, because making the floor even bigger would make defense even harder.
1. Allow more physical defense and allow incidental defensive contact if it doesn't affect the shot
2. Aggressive technicals for even minimal flopping
3. Aggressive travel and carry violations
4. Purposeful fouls are also technical fouls (stop prolonging end of games with boring free-throws)
And off the court rules:
1. Player contracts must have a per game clause, you don't play you don't get paid, with limited PTO for sick and rest days
2. A referree representative must be interviewed at end of games
3. Contracts have to have a penalty for initiating trades (if the player asks for a trade, part of their salary is non-garanteed. if a team initiated the trade for their player, they have to pay the difference non-garanteed amount to the player)
3pt dunks, hand checking, 1 on 1 ot, amazing additions.
even the draw your own 3pt line sounds interesting, hopefully the nba implements one of these.
Most people get paid by the hour but then get paid by the minute every minute they ain't playing every minute they're losing money see how bad it won't play then😂
I agree with #1 and #2 in realistic. The alot of 6:04 problems with the modern nba is that defensive strategies cant keep up with the optimized offense. Removing defensive 3 seconds and bringing back hand checks makes defense stronger.
I dont think eliminating corner 3 altogether is necessary if they implement that. Though they have to do something to nerf corner 3.
3 point dunk is crazy, but it does incentivize the players to make the game more exciting. If thats gonna be done, it should only be contested dunks
The transition sub would be insane. I’m here for it
"So like in San Antionio... they don't even have a 3-Point-Line! Bring it back to the 1960s!" :-D Made my day!!!
why not just add a 4-point line. and then, to balance things out and to prevent teams from just hoisting from way deep, have a 3-point dunk as well. but not just any dunk though. maybe 3-points for contact dunks or dunks that are contested.
Change the 3 point shot to a 2.5 point shot is perfect. Less overtimes, it's equal to 50% 2 point=40% 3 point. Which is perfect ratio. Plus no court demension changes that would effect the paint protection, making easy lanes.
The idea with the switch on fast break is the Way you play handball. But in handball you have defenders and scores and some players play on both ends
Interesting ideas! Cool video.
I’m not down with the 4-pointer either though.
crazy suggestion " MOVING RING GOALS"
like in the arcade which moves side to side
there once a league here in the philippines that introduce blitz 3, score in under 3 seconds and its counted as 3pts they even have a sounds that signifies you did it
I love baseball analytics and sabermetrics. Is there really a pushback against the banning of the shift? I think it was obviously necessary. I also love that they made the bases bigger and wider to encourage more action on the base paths.
All the realistic rules are really good!! We are obsessed with scoring. More points is not better makes scoring less exciting, and makes players that score well less valuable and defenders less valuable.
