Do you think the NBA should implement more rules to protect D12?

Dwight Howard is being stopped with hack a shaq strategy. No one enjoys watching that.

It cost houston the game against the lakers.

Would you support the NBA in implementing more rules to protect howard? such as extending the last 2 min foul away from the ball rules to the whole 4th quarter?

I probably wouldnt support a rule change, but that wasnt a fun game to watch

tbh they should eliminate the last 2 minutes rule

Or here's another suggestion, Dwight Howard could actually learn how to shoot free throws...

the 'delay of game' rule needs to be scrapped. WTF is that?

Fiba rules are were it's at.

The way basketball should be played, not this shit.

It's so simple.

That wouldn't be fair to Shaq. They created rules to help stop him.

There has always been 50% free throw shooters in the NBA, doesn't look like it's changing in the next 20 years.

Maybe not protect Dwight in particular, but shit like this is lame as hell. :facepalm

The NBA has tried to marginalize the big man for years. I know seven footers don't sell shoes but the anti-center bias in rules development/progression is pathetic.

Yea intentional fouling is stupid. As I've stated many times before, fouls, I believe, were intended to happen during actual basketball.

Drawing fouls is equally stupid, but sticking to the topic, I don't think there should be any intentional fouling (even at the end of games.) Basically the only thing it does is allow for more advertisement (which obviously means it will never be completely gone.)

Fouling players just to troll them is not a strategy. How can someone force a player to shoot FTs when he doesn't even have the ball? The only people who support that strategy, IMO, are haters who can't understand how some bball player can be a poor FT shooter.

Touching with one hand is a foul?

Houston's games will just become a game of tag with dwight out there.

Dwights sucky FT shooting + current rules = unwatchable games.

hack-a-asik will also keep you entertain

Yeah not like the NBA doesn't already have enough rules in place to make offensive easier..

Hit your free throws, the last thing the NBA should do is cater to this man child who already believes everything should be handed to him..

That'd be like saying "it's not fair when teams have off shooting nights, that shit isn't fun to watch, let's give them a half point for every shot as long as it hits the rim"
