Can we do a little bit of a change in the shotclock since multiple international leagues are implementing this rule as well?

Upon getting an offensive rebound, the shotclock will reset to 14 seconds instead of 24 to make the scores higher and for more opportunities to score.

Thanks! :)

While i agree this would be nice, realistically this is not a huge concern and would probably be too much work. Given the fact the shot clock is already buggy (no shot clock violation), I can’t imagine the coding for it is perfect and changing it around would probably be tougher than people would assume.

Realistically it happens in real basketball. But back to the importance of this change, it can be crucial during close games where there's 20 or less seconds on the clock where an offensive rebound would mean the defense won't have to resort to fouling because they can force a miss, get the defensive rebound and still have about 5-6 seconds left to execute a final play. It can make for some dramatic finishes to games.

I know it happens in real basketball. I’m not saying it would be a bad idea I actually want this idea as well I just wouldn’t say it’s much of a priority. How about we add shot clock violations before we worry about resetting the shot clock to 14

The shot clock would need to be fixed first to make sure that you don't have 40 seconds to shoot after some steals.
