Why do you think a coach would tell their team anything special about the number officials they are "confronted" with?

Coach - "Ok team. Now, all year we've had two officials. Tonight there are going to be three. Watch the off ball screens. Don't be so obvious with your hold - they'll see them now. Watch your travelling. Be on your best behavior - no trash talk. Drive to the basket more now, you're more likely to get a call. They're more likely to see three-seconds with more eyes on the court, so keep moving."

Just curious? As a coach, what would you say?
