b'On the latest episode of the show, Dr. Nick Elam, creator of the Elam Ending joins host Luke Winstel to discuss his story and innovative concept revolutionizing the game of basketball!\\nBio (from thetournament.com): Dr. Nick Elam is a professor at Ball State University. "He is a die-hard basketball fan who set his sights set on solving one of his biggest problems in basketball \\u2013 those last few minutes that seem to take hours because of intentional fouls. The \\u201cElam Ending\\u201d aims to revolutionize basketball by eliminating end-of-game fouling all together and keeping the quality of play consistent throughout the entire game.\\xa0Here\\u2019s how the Elam Ending works: Eliminate the clock from crunch time (under three-minute timeout in the NBA and under four-minute timeout in college) and establish a new target score by adding seven points to the leading team\\u2019s score. Resume the game and first team to reach the target score wins. For example, Team A leads Team B 70-65 at the under four-minute timeout. The clock then disappears and the first team to reach the new target score of 77 wins.\\xa0This eliminates the perceived advantage of fouling to stop the clock and allows for teams to make a comeback using hard-nosed defense and efficient offense rather than numerous fouls and prayers for missed free throws."\\nCheck out Episode 60 to hear the details and story behind the Elam Ending!\\nFollow the show on Instagram, Tik Tok and Twitter: @LukeWinstelShow\\nThank you for supporting the podcast!'
