I do not agree with the system. I think that it is in place to a degree in the NBA, and especially against the "lesser" teams as well as unknown rookies and bench players. You have to earn your calls in the NBA. And you can also earn your no-calls. I know that others may say we fan-boys just don't understand, but I think it has been clear for years that the NBA does maintain a standard for fouls that is weighted toward the star players.
Again, that is a league driven by a profit motive, and you don't make money if Shaq and Kobe sit due to foul trouble, you do if they can score 25-30 a game, including from the line. Jrut is right that the WNBA doesn't have any stars with the kind of drawing power that would cause this behavior. And that is a positive in my book.
