That's funny. It only counts if it goes in.

Pretty sad we need to change the rules to encourage pro players to do something that can help their team win.

Should have been done...many years ago. Will eliminate the "intentional pause"...before throwing up a "heave". Can't believe it took the NBA this long...to figure it out.

The old Cj McCollum hold the ball until the horn sounds finally goes away, I used to wonder why he’d even go get the ball

if the game was on the line, and the team was down 1 or 2, I don't think players would hesitate to do it whether it counted or not. this is more for the end of qtr, when it probably wont matter but will exciting to see more shots.

Oh Joy.
What they need to fix is how the last 12.2 seconds of close games results in 20 minutes of real time, a dozen timeouts, a dozen inbounds, 15 intentional fouls, and 18 free throw attempts.

Agree. Sad a player is worried more about such a minor affect on their person stats rather than trying to score points for their team.

I think what should happen is 1 full game should be officiated/reviewed/played the way the last 30 seconds is currently. Game will last over a day. Then maybe they will wake up and decide to treat the last 30 seconds, like the first 47:30.
