30 min halves and clock stoppages sound good. Time wasting is a scourge on the game. That would combat it directly. Hard to believe the clock just rolls on the way it does no matter what. I don't watch any other clock sport where that happens. However, I'd perhaps maybe trialling 40 or 35 minutes first, rather than go straight to 30.
Kick ins sound bad. Just get rid of the foul throw rule. As long as you throw the ball in with two hands over your head, who cares if you have a foot off the ground, or if you release the ball too far infront of your head, or not far enough. If you want to drop the ball right infront of your feet, you should be able to, it's your possession. There is no advantage to be gained from a foul throw.
Unlimited subs would benefit the bigger teams with bigger squads. Does it also mean that players can go off and then come back on? I don't like that idea. I think it would make games disjointed tactically. Though speaking of subs, I'd rather they just happened, rather than the game stopping so they can applaud the crowd or whatever. You should be ready to come off and go on, like in rugby. Maybe that will be the case if they're unlimited, but it should be the case anyway.
Sin bins for a yellow don't sound great either, particularly as bookings are so inconsistently awarded anyway. You get players who don't get booked until their 4th or 5th foul, and then others who get one immediately for a nothing challenge. I don't trust referees to apply this effectively.
