Possible new, wider lane

[Buford_Julep]

The Dallas News' story about the proposed new rules said the wider lane would reduce the need for brute strength in post players because establishing post position would not be as important. Also, the wider lane would increase the value of a quick post player who could cut through the wider lane.

This might be made to order for post players such as Will Smith, Mike DeGrate and Ron Harris. All rank higher in quickness than size and strength. New players Mike Jones and Shawon Johnson also could benefit from the new proposed rule.
