    Do you think the NBA should apply the instant replay like in the NFL?

    it's a good idea sure.. but i think it would make the game way too slow.. and basketball is supposed to be fast, back and forth. so no, keep it the way it is. the stupid reviewing of fouls and stuff would ruin the rythm of the game.

Either way, I'm not sure if I would go for this, maybe if it were just one challenge handed out to each team. It's supposed to be a fast pace game and it's already slowed up enough with all the timeouts. It's tough to see it working, although I definitely think it would be a great idea for the playoffs at least. End of quarter replays may be good enough and it doesn't waste anytime.

    Absolutely not. I don't want to watch a game that is going to be stopped every few minutes because of a challenge. I don't even want it if they only get one challenge per game.Keep the replay system the way it is...

    I think the one they have right now only is for shots when the quarter runs out, I think that's okay for now so I say keep it the way it is. It would slow down the pace of the game

    I swing both ways on this one. I mean I don't want to have the game stopped because of that, but at the same time it wouldn't hurt to get some big calls corrected.

    It think that a coach should get two challenges, just like the NFL. However, you can't really challenge a foul call, because it normally goes both ways anyway. You should be able to challenge Backcourt violations, out of bounds, three point shots, perhaps even lane violations

    In basketball it ruins the flow to have a 3 minutes break in the end of games, no way instant replay.

    I think it would be stupid to put in a replay system. It slows down the game and they have it for buzzer beaters any way and that's the only kind of play that I think you need it for.

    I think replay is fine the way it is now. If it was possible to challenge any questionable call, it would slow down the game alot and take away alot of credibility from the refs. I think its fine the way it is in which the last second shots are reviewed, however, anything more than that wouldnt be appropriate..

    I don't think you'll ever be able to challenge a foul or call like that because it's simply too close. When in slower motion, it is equally as tough to see.
