NBA All-Star weekend has officially come and gone from Atlanta and play has resumed across the league, which means this is a perfect time for another edition of the NBA mailbag.
Throughout the season, I will be answering your questions about the latest, most interesting topics in basketball. You can tweet me directly at @kpelton, tweet your questions using the hashtag #peltonmailbag or email them to peltonmailbag@gmail.com.
This week's edition of NBA mailbag includes:
Addressing the motivations and concerns from former players in considering whether to go down the pathway of becoming an assistant coach or a head coach in the NBA.
Debating a possible All-Star game tweak inspired by tourney play in the Philippines. Can you say "passerelle"? Also, is it time for the league to reconsider expanding the All-Star game rosters to 13? 15?
Breaking down the idea of the league switching to players shooting just one free throw instead of two for all possible late-game situations at the line. The G League is currently experimenting with the rule, should the NBA follow suit?
Let the answering of questions begin.
