So this time the topic is...the possession arrow!
Of course older fans or NBA fans will be familiar with a jump ball taking place when it's unclear which team should take possession of the ball.
The arrow rotates to point at the next team who's turn it is to be awarded possession in such situations, as well as who starts the next quarter.
The question is, which is better? Which is fairer? Which do you prefer? And are there any other solutions you thought of that might be better?

I prefer the NBA jump ball way.
It's fairer and you can get some interesting match ups from it.
One rule I wish we adopted from the NBA as well as a playoff series system.

Inclined to agree jammer, but just to play devils advocate - is it fair, when the jump ball is between say a 7 footer and a 6 footer? I'd like the rule to be that the team can nominate who jumps rather than the players involved in the possession struggle.

But wouldn't that mean the only players who do the jump are the ones who start the game off unless injured or fouled out? |

Well I mean it would have to be one of the players on the court at the time but yes, would generally be the bigs!
