Message: [QUOTE="Roger G, post: 2198082, member: 7083"] While I like WNBA basketball very much, many times I have said that I would prefer that they use a 30 second clock. A lot of bad shots are taken because of the shot clock. Players may not get an open shot, but they have to take it anyway. It looks ugly to me. I like the way UConn passes the ball until they get an open shot. That is part of the prettiness of the game. Somewhat surprisingly, Geno favors the 24 second shot clock for women's college basketball. Moreover, I agree, Ukonnfan, with many of your other points and the essential gist of your post, but I also agree with many of the other posters that say it ain't happening, going to the 30 second clock. Too much emphasis on moving things faster. Short attention spans of modern human beings. A flaw we are unlikely to rectify in the near term. [/QUOTE]
