Therefore, a shot clock could render this discussion moot, as fewer stop-the-clock fouls tend to happen in shot-clock games.
Then why hasn't it reduced late game fouling in levels that use the shot clock? The NCAA and NBA have had the shot clock for decades and there is still a lot of late game fouling.
