Today on ESPN radio Dan Patrick interviewed former NBA official Hugh Hollins about "STAR SYSTEM". This is some of the remarks that he made on this subject, what do you think?
Hue Hollins, former NBA referee: When asked if the refs have a 'star system', he admitted that refs gather and make sure when a star player has five fouls that the sixth is a sure foul and not a ticky-tack foul. They don't want to lose one of the key players unless it's a sure foul. He also said that when a player such as Oliver Miller goes in the game, they know that he's in there to foul and are ready to call them on him. He goes into this extensively.
