While I'm sure that many veteran officials have good reasons to make this call (running time, knuckleheads, etc.), I'm also sure that there are a few officials out there, probably mostly rookies, who make this call as a "Got'cha" call, as in, "Hey. Look at me. I know lots of basketball rules".
Hey so cal lurker, you weren't a middle school knucklehead, were you?
