<div class="quote_poster">Neely Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I think the "not allowed to shift your weight from one leg to the other" rule is already stupid, because many just do it to stay alert and warmed-up, to prepare themselves for the physical job and so on.</div> I totally agree.
The no shifting rule is incredibly rediculous. Some people are naturally restless and have trouble staying in a certain position, and thats just standing naturally. Before a game with the buildup it must be even more intense, this rule is a disgrace to the NBA.
