UNC vs VT - Bilas - Eliminate Intentional Fouls?

Anyone see the end of the UNC/Va Tech game?

Game winding down, ~ 30 seconds left. UNC up by 5. UNC Guard dribbling in the backcourt and is grabbed from behind.

Bilas' partner says, that's got to be an intentional foul.....but, they didn't call it. The officials are so subjective on this......

Bilas then says due to the subjectivity of the intentional foul call, they should do away with intentional fouls altogether and just have personal, flagrant, and technicals.

Discussion ensues.......

I know we've discussed intentionals before - two-handed pushes, uniform grabs, bear hugs, etc......any thoughts on doing away with it totally or is this just another Bilasism?
