My pre-games are relatively short. My two main points are always communication and consistency. Cliff notes version:
Let's communicate as much as possible. Quick eye contact on dead balls, make sure we are all on the same page, slow down and talk to at least one partner if something funny happens, if you warn a coach/player let us know, etc.
Consistency means that we all have our own judgment and way of calling the game but it shouldn't take us long to figure out what the game needs and how we want to call it as a crew. Let me live and die with marginal contact in my area but if you have to get something then do it.
Cover basics like Trail and C taking plays to the basket, L usually has best look at secondary defender, no prelims on double whistles for block/charge, rotate until the end, and a few other things.
Let's have fun.
