If we are the worst team on the court for that game, I guarantee that both coaches know, most players know and most fans can sense.

I do not concern myself with what coaches, players or fans think about anything. Not something I go around worrying about.
Secondly the term consistency from many people means, "Call the game consistently for me." I am not going to mirror everything my partner does just because they have called something. I am going to call what I am supposed to and call what happens in my area. If I have a partner that is calling all kind of crap, I am not calling the game to make me look like crap too.

I am a state licensed official and I will also be at many camps simply as a clinician. I am still trying to figure out what other camps I will attend on my own as I will be very busy this summer with some personal projects. And at camps especially I do not want people to just call something to mirror partners. There is a difference between being consistent and doing things to fake consistency. And also do not feel that consistency is the most important thing when both teams will not play the same on either end of the court.
