Referees:

• If a foul is committed, call the foul.
  
• If the foul is intentional, call the foul intentional. Especially at the end of games when the losing team is trying to make up a point differential.
  
• Every player must be subject to the same rules. No special treatment of star players.
  
• No make-up calls.
  
• Call the rules identically regardless of the game situation or foul situation.

Rules:

• Reduce the maximum number of fouls per player from six to five.
  
• Allow the team that was awarded free throws the option of shooting free throws or taking the ball out of bounds in lieu of free throws.
  
• Accumulate free throws and shoot them between the third and fourth quarters. During the fourth quarter, shoot free throws during the flow of play (same as the current rule).
  
• Increase the shot clock from 24 seconds to 30 seconds. But have the shot clock begin as soon as the other team makes a shot or otherwise loses possession of the ball. Also, the shot clock runs while a team attempts to in-bound the ball.
  
• Strike the "illegal defense" and "illegal offense" rules.
