Calling a foul is a judgement call by the official. We have already proven that out here on this forum. One player may get slapped but since he did not lose control of the ball, no call was made. I would say the results where 50-50, where 50% of us said it is a foul and another 50% said it wasn't. And then another % indicated that if the intensity was high in the game they would call it. My point is calling fouls is a judgement call for the officials and if you should get so lucky to have 4 - 4 teams fouls with 3 minutes left to go in the half. Most people in the gym, the fans, the coaches, the administrators (the people that write the check, it's always good to please these people), the clinicains and even the assigner if present is pleased with that reading. They will all say that's being consistent, they are doing a good job, these are the type of officials we want calling our games.
It's like driving a car. You don't tell a new driver to drive a car and never look at the gas gauge. Just drive the car, don't worry about the gas guage, it will take care of itself. How does that sound?
