Do you think it would be more entertaining to have the same fighting rules in the NBA that are in the NHL?

Just a thought.

You'd have to wall off the Court, I would think. Don't want the Fights to get into the crowds.
 
No. In hockey it's there partly because it draws in fans at first (who then stay for other reasons) and partly because it's already a really physical game where checking and other stuff is allowed. In the NBA, none of that stuff is allowed and they rightly come down hard on people who fight.
 
mmm ya mix two most populer sport in world.fighting n basketball...dat would kill all other sports 4 real
ya be a smart man mbrown. good idea
 
Only if they let the players bring gun onto the court, it'll be like old times for the majority of NBA players anyway. "That's a foul motherfucker! I'm gonna bust a cap in your ass!"

I wish the refs could slap the shit out of the players every time they bitch and moan about a call.

Only if the players can beat the fuck out of the referees when they make obviously bogus calls like what's been going on all throughout the blazers/rockets series and rockets/lakers series...

What is legal in basketball anyway? I can never tell. Sometimes you're allowed to push a player out of your way with your ass and other times you can't .

Don't even start. It's bad enough when the announcers are like "You know, everybody has their own opinion about good calls and bad calls, but anyone who thinks this game has been fairly called, especially the last few calls in favor of the Rockets here in the 4th quarter, would be out of their freaking mind" sorta thing, you know something's up.

Depends on where you're standing and which player is moving at the time of impact.

Those brutal calls have been in every series I've watched so far. The NBA officiating is such a joke, but it seems like they are never going to do anything about it.
