I think would note in the pregame we have guys that are not particularly happy with each other. Than I would note who the stars on the team are and who might do what with the basketball or off ball. I do not know if what Shaq said would be that different than all the other things he might have already said.
I know if I was working the Pistons/Pacer game that same day, I would note there has been some bad blood over the last few years. But that would not change fundamentally what I call or not call. I would just try to be aware that any physical play might need to be addressed.
Peace
