Foul ridden games are not watchable either. To me, consistency was always more the issue than physical play.
Rules committee has spoken

Maybe. Maybe not.
I hate those games in which three or four starters on each team spend major minutes on the bench due to foul trouble, and games end up being wars of attrition in terms of players fouling out.
Depth could be critical this year. Guys like Wally, Matt, and Sacar could see significant mpg at times this year. -

11-01-2015, 10:24 AMwarriorfan4lifeI agree that there needs to consistency, but that consistency will hopefully lead to freer movement and basketball games that resemble basketball and not 1970's Big Ten football. The NBA bit the bullet and the result has been objectively much better basketball. Hopefully college basketball officials ignore the noise and remain committed to the cause.Quote:

@GoodmanESPN: The one fairly consistent thing among the secret scrimmages? LOTS OF FOULS CALLED. Everyone needs to be patient early in year. Again.
