"That's Something! or That's Stupid!"

Dan and Grant debut "That's Something! or That's Stupid!," an idea that is the brainchild of RealSyrup2219 from Discord. (Thanks, RealSyrup2219!) In this pod, we respond to 13 statements that cover the NBA rulebook, league coverage, play styles and much more and then decide whether these proclamations are "Stupid!" or worth further discussion and implementation. TIMESTAMPS BELOW⬇️ 0:00 - INTRO 4:05 - The NBA should look at rule changes to cut down on the reliance of the 3-ball so it's less of a "make or miss" league 6:25 - We (Fans, Media, basically everyone who doesn't work in a front office) should talk more about how "fun" and "unique" teams and players are and less about how "good" and "dominant" and "championship contenders" they are 12:36 - The NBA should abolish the coach's challenge 15:03 - Players should not be allowed to talk to the refs during the game. Coaches can lobby on behalf of their team 17:58 - If you fall down, you aren't eligible to draw a foul unless it's a flagranT 20:10 - All intentional fouls should be considered take fouls  22:35 - Free throws should not be shot in the moment. They should be tallied up and then shot all at once at the end of each quarter to add pressure 25:14 - The NBA should adopt the international rules allowing players to touch the ball as soon as it hits the rim 26:24 - In-arena music and sound effects should not be allowed during play 30:18 - Bank shots are cooler than swishes 31:53 - The NBA should reinstitute the hand check 34:04 - Every team having new jerseys every year will have negative effects on the league in the long run 38:01 - Free agency should come before the draft JOIN OUR DISCORD: bit.ly/discordhwk SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL: bit.ly/31z7eyI FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL⬇️ TWITTER/IG: @danfavale / @danfavale TWITTER: @gt_hughes TWITTER: @fromal09 TWITTER/IG: @HardwoodKnocks / @hardwood_knocks TIKTOK: @hardwoodknocks TWITTER: @SportsMathNet Learn more about your ad choices.
