i would really like to see some rules of the nba be upheld. possibly some changed too.
i at least would like to see the charging rule provisioned a bit. from what i gather, the charging rule was set to protect the defensive player from get smashed in the face/chest by an un-controlled player making way for the basket *cough* shaq *cough*. but too many times have i seen an offensive player going for a lay-up, committing thier dribble, and jumping when all of a sudden, a guard just jumps in the way, setting both feet and falling.
that to me isn't a charge. it's like someone swinging their arm and me jumping in the way of their fist, getting socked for my stupidity, and sueing them for assault.
the charging rule allows for players to just disregard playing defense totally and just relying on the jump, set, and flop. that's lame
