While they're not 100% official, it's doubtful these will change.

Lots of changes for the better IMO.

Six fouls for a 40 minute game is too many.

Shorter shot clock favors P5 programs, more possessions.

Six fouls also favor P5 programs; providing another buffer for the all-elbows-all-the-time bigs who can dominate the boards.

I'm having a hard time seeing the wisdom in changing rules to discourage physical play and then allowing players an extra foul.

Shorter shot clock had to happen. Too many teams standing around for 20 seconds before starting their offense.

I like all the changes except the fouls for the reasons already mentioned. 5 fouls is enough. I don't watch the NBA as it is because I can see the same muggings in downtown Hartford most nights...

That was the NBA of 15-20 years ago. They've done a much better job of cleaning up the pro game than college.
