Basketball in 2026 looks different than it did in 2016, let alone 2002 or 1987. Part of that change is due to evolution in regulation. Turn-of-the-millennium rules changes against hand-checking and recent prohibitions against putting body parts in the landing spaces of jump-shooters have changed the way the game is played. The entire style of play we\u2019re seeing in the modern era can be traced back to the league\u2019s adoption of the three-pointer way back in 1979.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">If you\u2019re reading this site in August, you\u2019ve probably watched a fair amount of NBA basketball. We\u2019re asking your expert opinion today. What\u2019s one rule change you\u2019d like to see enacted this summer to fix an ongoing issue or take the game to the next level? You can pick something that\u2019s already on the docket (free throw changes and smart balls and such) or go off the table into something new and daring.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Whatever you choose, share your proposed change and the reasoning for it in the comments section below!
