I love the new rule where you cant use "abnormal non basketball moves" to draw fouls when shooting. Hopefully they enforce it.
If you had the authority to make it happen, what other NBA rule(s) would you change?
I would eliminate the euro-step. I guarantee when the "2 steps are allowed when attempting a layup" rule was created it was not intended to allow you to alter your path to get around defenders. I realize there is a grey area, but the blatant change of direction, sometimes twice, has gotten way out of control and way beyond the purpose of the rule.
I would also move the 3 point line back to a distance where the shooting %s drop back down to where 30-35% is the exception rather than the norm. Probably have to eliminate the corner 3 to make it happen, and would have to do some research to figure out the exact distances, but at least 25' min on the wings, 26' straight on.
