Would this make the NBA about 5,546 times better to watch?

WTF? The reason games drag on at the end is mostly because of intentional fouls, not timeouts. The team that was ahead would still try to run the clock down and the team that was behind would still have to foul them.

The timeouts are a bore. After all the games and practices, shouldn't coaches just be able to call a play and have everyone know what they are supposed to do? Do we really need 5 timeouts in the last minute of a game? I am with the OP. The last few minutes of an NBA game is borderline unwatchable...and it shouldn't be that way.

its not because of timeouts
