Don't be that guy you're partner's going to talk about with his buddies later. "Dude called 7 fouls and 2 travels in the last minute of a 52-24 game. Took us 8 minutes to play that last minute when everyone on both sides just wanted to get on the bus."

You are right there are games where everyone wants the game to end, but then do not put me in a position to call a foul. Some of that is on the teams, not the crew.
