Not quite this extreme, but a lot of delay game happens with really high frequency in Maine. You get any sort of lead substantial lead in the 3rd or 4th quarter and losing team is not likely to get enough possessions to even work a come back.

Its a tactic and it works, as an official it makes life a little easier on my legs. As a basketball fan I want to smack everyone involved in games with high school kids where it is about the coaches and not the players.
