I'm sorry, I was expected to call travels when I refereed, along with block/charges, and everything else in the book, and my primary focus was on the defense. And there were only two referees.

There's three referees reffing during a NBA game.

They can use any excuse they want, but the bottom line is that it's not entertaining (read: good television) to call the 30 travels that occur in the average NBA game.
