To me it's just part of the game. You can foul and get the ball back if you want.

I have no real problem with what's going on now, but I do like tinkering in hypotheticals and seeing if we come up with something.

Another possibility is just make a rule that within the final two minutes, if a defender fouls a player who does not have possession of the ball, it's an automatic one shot plus the ball. That way, if you foul before the ball is in-bounded, you're penalized for it.
