While I agree with his point about fans wanting to watch the stars and possibly adding another personal to make it 7, I don't know about doing away with fouling out, that's an integral part of the game and part of the strategy.
I would however fix the officiating to how it was back in the 90s, the days of the Piston bad boys, those classic Knick/Pacers clashes... rough and tough. No soft calls, no touch fouls, let the players play. And as much as the refs and league would deny it, its quite obvious there are "superstar" calls where the stars get the benefit of the call simply cause of the name on their back.
