Intentional Foul
When I first started coaching over 25 years ago, when behind late in the game, I would yell out to my players to "Foul" in order to stop the clock. I was told by a veteran official to stop yelling "Foul" under those circumstances because it would put the idea of an intentional foul in the official's head. He suggested a code word. Ours was "Steal the ball", which our players knew meant to foul right now to stop the clock.
