Some great advice from everyone.

I'd also make sure to attend as many playoff games as you can at the end of season, to see how the most skilled officials work with the most skilled players.

The pressure of the playoffs can create some unusual situations that will highlight these officials' game management skills. Watch their positioning and the communication between the officials, particularly the non-verbal communication. Watch how they hustle to keep abreast of the action and pay special attention to how they keep control if volatile situations threaten to over-shadow the game.
