I agree. You would have to add some penalty (run some time off the clock) if a second foul was committed within a certain time of the first foul, and there had been no loss of posession.

One twist to this you could throw in, and it'll definitely stir up the board, is if a team is in the 1 and 1 bonus, they can have this option, but they don't when they get to the 2 shot bonus. Imagine the defense being stupid enough to hack them into getting 2 easy shots?

In a mens comp league that I work, any foul in the last 2 minutes of either half results in 2 FTs no matter what the foul count is...

Kind of wierd but it puts the emphasis on good solid defense.
