    The Blazers with their big guys would be ready for the rule change.

    FIBA still has goaltending.
    the only difference is you can tip the ball after it hits the rim. So kawhi's famous bounce bounce shot probably never would have gone in.



    Goaltending/basket interference No blocking a ball in downward flight towards the rim. Once the ball strikes the rim, any player can play the ball (i.e. swat it away or tap it in)

    Whiteside could average 20-20-20.

    Sure, but Gobert block would also have been goaltending by the FIBA rules

    I have no concept of how you can hit a heavy rubber ball up that high with your hip
