We all know that the only exciting part of a basketball game is the final two minutes of a close game. Sure, the other 58 minutes can be an interesting display of skill and sometimes even amount to a mindly interesting back and forth, lead-changing battle. But, the heart only pumps in the last few
seconds when every second, shot, and rebound matter.
I propose changing the game scoring. The winner is determined by whichever team can win 3 out of 5 twelve-minute mini-games. The point score resets to 0-0 at the beginning of each mini-game.
With this, spectators are guaranteed at least 3 "final two minutes" in any one game.

Why not final 20 seconds.Even with timeouts,adverts the games will still last 2 hours. |

I think this is a very interesting idea. Especially given how monotonous b-ball is on tv. All I see is people running with this huge apricot and jumping and dunking it into nets on either ends. |

Maybe one should bring in wide knee-high baskets. |
|
|
Also, they should try to play with a half inflated ball, maybe put it a bit out of shape a bit too. |

Wait a minute... I'm describing RUGBY here! |
|
|
Anyway, any idea that makes a really boring sport interesting gets a (+) from me! |

Knee high baskets?.Rugby.Basket ball and Rugby combined could be interesting. |
|
|
Why not just make basketball into a five minute game? |

Rugby players have started to wear more protection over the last few years.Mouth guards, Helmets and some bits of padding. |
