I don't know about that. I can think of quite a few matches where if Team X had/hadn't shot free throws, it would have changed the entire gameplay of the final seconds. Maybe not 20% I suppose, but definitely 10%.
Take today's Wichita State game for example. If that final foul had been a flagrant, it could have changed the whole dynamic of the situation (note: the correct call was made in that instance). And that's just today.
Everyone's getting all worked up about something that isn't new by any stretch of the imagination.
