After thr Man City ref controversy today, i wondered why the nba doesn’t implement an “advantage” rule.

The NBA wanted to discourage fastbreak fouls with a take foul, but that still stops the fastbreak. Instead the refs should play advantage until the fastbreak is hindered by the foul and asses the take oul anyway after.

Also the goaltending rules can be a bit harsh for the defense, the backboard goaltending call should be erased, most of the time you don’t know if it even has a chance to go in.

    How do they handle that though? Would that mean teams would have 6 guys on the court when one runs in and the other is running off? Or do they have to tag out like wrestling?

      In sports that allow this, the teammate on that court usually has to get outside before the substituting teammate can go in. So for a few milliseconds you would have 4 players on the court, but never 6.
