Any official who works hard will work just as hard in three man as they do in 2-man and be just as tired at the end of the game And working two man doesn't make anybody any less whistle happy. Just means more off ball and dirty plays are being missed.

Agreed. I cannot stand 2-person and if I had to do it for real games on a regular, I would just do college or quit.

2man is a challenge. At least in 3-man if you have a partner or two that are just there, you can survive it mostly.

With a bad partner in two man, it feels like a dueling session.

Yup. Everyone in the gym can identify the distinction between a pair of officials who aren’t on the same sheet of music. When there’s three out there, chances are at least two are fairly aligned, which may take the pressure off the third guy who may not be (rookie, off night, doesn’t do 3-p often, just plain sucks, etc.).
