We're so far away from traveling being called correctly it's insane. Much like offensive (and defensive) holding in football, it could be called on every possession.

I don't like coaches on the floor.

I don't give a **** about players hanging on the rim; the rims are different these days and can support a player's weight.

I don't really care for the taunting that goes on.

I HATE the incessant reviews for flagrant fouls. A flagrant foul is like jazz; it's difficult to explain but you know it when you see it.

One thing I'd like to see is eliminating the coach from calling time out when the ball is in play. A player should have to have the wherewithal to call it himself.
