why, in the first half, do teams blindly foul when they have "a foul to give". why do they want their player to pick up a foul? why do they want to push the other team closer to the bonus? earlier in the lakers-suns game, nash was flying up the court with 3 seconds left and walton fouled him because they had "one to give". this gave the suns an in-bounds pass from about half-court as opposed to nash jacking up some 3 after running 99 mph down the court. i don't understand how this made any sense for the lakers.

thanks

basically u let the other team get into their offensive set and develop their play then foul them and they have to start over w/like 5 sec instead of 8 is all
