🏀 The 1990's Era

Changes: The 1990's era started to crack down more on physicality of the players. Some of the rules they added to stop the physicality was the flagrent foul rule and hand checking. Flagrent foul: Established a more severe penalty system for overly physical fouls, differentiating them from common fouls and discouraging rough play, a shift from the previous era's intensity. Hand-Chekcing Ban: Defenders were restricted from using forearms or hands to impede offensive players in the frontcourt.
