Maybe you don't hold NBA refs in such high regard, but I think when you ref the highest level, at the highest stage, with the best athletes in the world and have a 94% accuracy rate that's dang good in my books. You might disagree with that, but I just do not believe that get near that many plays right.
What is right? Every foul call is subjective -- was there advantage/disadvantage to the point where the official decided to call a foul?

I live in Big 10 territory and the officials let the players play. It's a very physical league. How could you possibly say those officials are right? Or wrong?
