I never liked the change to double-bonus period

When I was in high school, there was no double-bonus. It was 1-and-1 from 7 fouls on in a half.

The double-bonus takes a lot of pressure off someone going to the line and needing to convert the front end to remain ahead by more than 1 score. It also takes a lot of pressure off a coach who might otherwise decide not to play a poor FT shooter in favor of someone who can consistently knock down FTs.

With that stated, I'll stop my "Get off my lawn!" rant. I know this ship has sailed and it's never going back.
