Individual players do adjust when they get fouls called, normally because they are playing stupidly and picking up fouls they shouldn't. That can and does happen, and should happen. With this particular game, I saw entire teams of players looking a bit confused over all the calls, and not picking up stupid fouls. Not the same thing, IMO.

I can see that...sure...these players and coaches have reached the pinnacle of their sport yet they cannot figure out how to adjust to how the game is being called. Sure...I mean, it's not like they've been doing this 356 days a year for their entire lives or anything.
