If the team who is ahead hits their free throws the lead grows and eventually no one will foul because the game is out of reach. 1-and-1 at 5 would be insane 1:15 games would quickly turn into 1:30 and 1:45 games. You would spend the whole game at the line!!

I disagree with this assessment
"All you have to do to eliminate the fouling to stop the clock is to hit free throws", especially when it is done deliberately.
The team who is behind towards the end of a game will attempt to foul no matter what the point differential is.
I agree slightly with a change by having the double bonus resulting in 2 shots and possession.
Shouldn't the officials begin having the guts to call the intentional foul?
