It's terribly broke. That was the point of the post. You may not agree with that, and that's fine, but is the game really helped when the last minute of it lasts 10 minutes and is filled with what amounts to intentional contact and free throw shooting?

Would it be better if the team ahead by 8 points with 2 minutes to go had no chance of losing because with no shot clock and no 1-and-1 there is no strategy capable of overcoming that lead?
