Re: Marcin Gortat Wants Fighting in the NBA
If he wants fighting he picked the wrong sports. Basketball is not like hockey where a hockey player can't punch properly because they are wearing these nearly 2 to 3 inches Ice skates, and a protective helmet.
Kermit Washington almost ended the NBA Career of Rudy Tomjanovich in the 1970's.

i wouldn't want fighting because that might result in bans and injuries. But some allowed hard fouls would be more than welcome.

Rudy T was also a very good NBA Player. I think he averaged 25 ppg.

There are a ton of guys in the NBA who do MMA and Boxing in the offseason.
@ The retards who want fighting in the NBA. Go watch boxing or MMA if you want that. No one wants to see a star player sidelined for a couple of weeks because an scrub decides to punch him.

completely agree
Furthermore I think nobody wants to see overphysical games that would come from referees bored of whistling for every goon move. Basketball is a game of skill.
On the otherhand a rule that would make the game much more interesting would be to alter the blocking rule to the fiba style. It would take down scoring but it would improve the quality of the game, no more harden/durant/kevin martin/etc attacking the rim for free throws. I simply find this is not in the spirit of the game.
It would also minimize flopping opportunites and the dangerous charge takers that slid under in-air players.

If it was me, I'd suspend players for the first flop and +1 game suspension for each subsequent flop. If a player flops for the 5th time, that would be a 5 game suspension.

I rather see them get rid of handchecking and charging fouls.

Re: Marcin Gortat Wants Fighting in the NBA
I don't think institutionalized fighting has any place in the NBA.
What I believe should be changed is the Technical foul problem. Far too many players are getting techs for silly reasons. You can't talk a little trash (which is a genuinely natural part of competitive sports, particularly bball), anything that isn't a touch-foul is a flagrant (you get the drift), and perimeter players have no worry in the world regarding getting to the basket because big guys are scared to lay a finger on them.
The physicality of the sport is lost...I would never condone intentionally harming another player...that's not basketball. But bodying other players up, good-hardnosed defense (light hand-checking isn't gonna hurt the game) and protecting the hole is all in the spirit of competition.
Techs, penalty for non-destructive physical play and lack of "tear the enemies heart out" mentality amongst many players are the only things i'd truly change about today's game. And I understand that you can't change a players mentality lol But I would definitely look into altering the first two.
Make it happen, Silver.
