Have you ever seen a football, hockey, soccer, etc., game where teams intentionally commit violations late in the game, when trailing and trying come back? Obviously, not. Basketball, on the other hand, does it all the time. The result is the last 90 seconds of a game can take 10 minutes, or more, as foul after foul turns the game into a FT shooting contest.
This could be easily fixed.
Get rid of the 1-1 at 7 fouls. The 7th foul is 2 shots. As for the double bonus at 10+ fouls, it would be 2 shots AND possession. This way, the final minute foul fest becomes a detriment, not a betterment, to the losing team.
