From a coaching standpoint, I hate it when officials have this type of mentality. If team A is driving to the basket and cutting hard, they most likely will get fouled far more than team B that settles for early long range jumpshots and do not crash the boards. Intentionally calling fouls to make the foul count even puts one team at an unfair disadvantage. A team that pressures, traps and scrambles will probably have more fouls on hand-checking and reaching type situations than a team that sits back in a soft zone.
