I don't necessarily disagree with the OP...the end of basketball games, from the NBA to HS, is typically tedious and boring when you get into FT shooting contests. I don't agree that any foul in the last two minutes should equal 2FT and possession though, as that doesn't solve the issue, and penalizes legitimate defensive play.
I wonder what would happen if you gave the fouled team the option to shoot FT or take the ball out of bounds...just thinking off the top of my head. I know this has been discussed for hack-a-shaq situations, which is also an issue. I've never understood why you force a team to take a reward and don't give them a choice since they are the offended party. |

I’d add a caveat—the offended team could either inbound at the spot of the foul or at 3/4 court—with no defense allowed in the backcourt (penalty: technical foul) until the ball gains front court status. “Free-ins” so to speak. |

Had a close game this weekend where kid told me out of a timeout they were going to foul. I said make sure you make a play on the ball....Kid proceeded to grab a player from behind by the arms...he didn't have the ball.
Coach was dumbfounded why I called intentional foul. :confused: |

Other proposals, which I think aren't terrible, include automatic bonus and possession after the 12th foul or something similar. |

Maybe go to 3 FTs to make 2 like it was in NBA back in the day.:D

As others have mentioned, this is not a new concept (damn, there goes my patent). |

Art Hyland and JD Collins do not peruse this forum, so constantly asking for rules changes here is a fruitless endeavor.
