I accidently posted this in a thread but the other night Don Nelson had his players foul someone on purpose in the third quarter of the game! He used players that had fouls to give on a player that he knew wasn't a good free throw player. Even though what he did was legal and maybe he was right but it does take away from the spirit of the game plus slow it down.
His players did that about six or seven times. I think if a coach has his team do that and it is so obvious that the NBA needs to have the officials warn the coach that it shouldn't be done and that if it is that a technical will be called on the bench. This would stop this type of thing. Anyway any ideas? Of course in the last three minutes this rule would not be applicable.
