Producers spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on each episode. Why can't they spend a few bucks on a real official to check out the basketball scenes? I should send them my resume.

There's so much to love about Numb3rs as a show; but their basketball scenes are not among them.
There are far more things wrong with it than just what you mention. They bring Jordan Farmar from the Lakers to help stop their losing streak; and nothing is ever mentioned about potential sanctions. The gym itself is far too small for a college gym; hardly any bleachers at all. I'm assuming they were filming in a practice gym at some UC school.
As much as I love the show, they may as well have put David Krumholtz on water skis.
