Can anyone help me with some detailed information or links on the FIBA rule changes proposed for implementation after the 2014 World Champs?
I've looked on the FIBA site and I can't find anything. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place.
TIA

FYI I finally found something with Google. It seems the proposed changes are:
* After an offensive rebound, the shot clock will reset to 14 seconds (not 24)
* The penalty for a technical foul will be one free throw and possession (not two and the possession)
* After two technical fouls on a player they will be ejected
* During the last two minutes of the game there will be a maximum of two timeouts per team, even if they have three left
* Some other change to the no-charge circle which I don't quite understand
Mostly these seem sensible. I'm not sure about the logic behind reducing the penalty for a technical foul, other than being more NBA-like.
BTW the link I found is:

Only change is change of name from World Championship to World Cup.
Any rule changes will be after the FIBA Basketball World Cup

I'm not a fan of the shot clock change for an offensive rebound. If your good enough to get the offensive rebound you should be able to get a fresh 24. To me it seems like it rewards bad defence.
It could only be if the shot hits the ring otherwise it isnt a legitimate shot, the clock would continue to run. Otherwise a team would never be rewarded on defense.
The no charge zone....it's basically saying every competition must use it now.
Interesting that Euroleague may bring back the jump ball instead of the possession arrow. Tells me it will probably come back in after 2018 world cup.

Basketball World Cup (or World Cup of Basketball) will be held in 2014 before changing to 2019 and being held the year before each Olympics.

I'm sure they're available for download on FIBA's site if you look.

Here's a link to the new rules that come in from 1 October 2014:

No-charge rule will be same as in the NBA, only two time-outs per team in final two minutes, 14 second o-board reset, tech foul penalty will be 1FT and possession.
with that new rule on the shot clock feel for the shot clock operators. should be interesting to say the least!

That's true. At least theyve finally got the no-charge rule right though, amazing they could stuff that up when the NBA has already shown how it was done!

No-charge semi-circle to protect offensive player in air is good to have in every competition, I like the concept and it should not be hard to implement.
14 Second shot clock re-set after offensive rebound to speed up next shot, I like too.
Tech foul reduced to one shot and possession is interestingly compensated by a second tech foul resulting in the player being disqualified...
Overall I have no great issues with the changes, they seem to be after a quicker game with less chance a result is affected by tech fouls on the score board, but at the same time less tollerance for persistent or repeat tech fouls.
just need to get the player who is not airborne who takes a step and plows through the player in the circle and wants no charge to be called to understand the bit about being airborne etc

I believe no charge rule will change to mean a foot on line is inside the no charge zone like the NBA, as opposed to current nonsensical FIBA interpretation.
When will fiba release the interpretations on the rule changes

I won't be putting up my hand to do the shot clock with that offensive rebound 14 sec rule. It's probably the most common error for shot clock operators already without the addition of having to decide whether to reset to 14 or 24.
