Earl's opinion was that "The fans are there for Sports entertainment not to watch a parade to the free throw line."
I've read Earl's book a couple times and for the most part, I liked it. But if the game calls for a parade to the FT line, then you better darn well call those fouls; or you'll end up with something a lot worse than a parade.

Art McDonald (assignor for the D2 CACC) told us at camp to call fouls at the end of the game. Not make them up, but call what's there. Don't hold off the whistle to let the players decide. Call the disadvantage and let them have their shot to win the game from the line.

Just offering another angle.
