FWIW, we'll likely see fewer big men on the court late in the game to avoid an issue with this rule. It'll be interesting to take stock after the season and see what effect the rule ends up having on the games.

You've got to be excited about your Horns with James coming back. They've got a ton of talent on the floor now.
