Michael Jordan's ex-teammate Ron Harper calls out the NBA's 'stupid' free-throw rule change experiment.
What's the new rule?
The NBA is testing a rule that awards a single free-throw worth one, two, or three points, depending on the foul.
Why it matters for Michael Jordan
This experiment has sparked mixed reactions, with many fans sharing Harper's sentiments that the new rule adds extra pressure on the shooter.
The standard free-throw rules will still apply during the final two minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime.
What comes next?
As things stand, this is just an experiment, and there's no word on when this rule will be officially implemented in the NBA.
Ron Harper, who played with Michael Jordan on the Chicago Bulls, is 100% against this 'stupid' rule.
The NBA Summer League will be used to test the new rule, with fans and players eagerly awaiting the outcome.
The reaction to the new rule has been intense, with many questioning the need for such a drastic change.
And the NBA has a history of experimenting with new rules, with some being successful and others not.
But for now, the fate of the one-free-throw rule remains uncertain.
The NBA's decision to experiment with the new rule is likely to be a topic of discussion in the coming weeks.
So far, the reaction to the new rule has been mostly negative, with many citing the added pressure on shooters.
The NBA has not announced when the experiment will begin, but it is expected to start during the NBA Summer League.
The outcome of the experiment will be closely watched by fans and players alike, with many hoping that the NBA will reconsider the new rule.
The debate over the new rule is likely to continue, with Michael Jordan's ex-teammate Ron Harper leading the charge against it.
