Your definintion of "prove" they "hate" him seems to be that they don't drink the "OMG DUKE AND K ARE SO GREAT!!!" kool-aid, since that is pretty much the only thing that has been discussed in this thread - no evidence of anyone "hating" or "going out of their way" to discuss anything. Officials post here all the time, its not like anyone is posting in this thread who does not post about officiating regularly anyway. Excepting you, of course.
So the answer is - they would want to work his games for the same reason all officials want to work any games - because they love what they do and enjoy it, despite having to often deal with coaches who have very poor concepts of dignity and sportsmanship, like Coach K. Certainly no decent official is going to allow himself to be run off by the lowest common denominator of coaches and their antics.
