Calling Travels in the NBA?

I'm watching the Bobcats vs the Magic right now and in the first quarter so far there have been THREE traveling calls. Basic traveling, not anything exceptional to make it any different than 95% of the rest of the league with their stepping. Is this a late season POE?

All three calls have been from Tommy Nunez Jr. (sorry for spelling), so maybe that's his thing. The announcers are actually pretty good at agreeing with the calls and supporting the refs rather than disagreeing.

Hmm.

I'm impressed. It will probably only last a few days if it's a POE sent out by the league.

Tommy was an elite 8 NCAA official last season.

End of the 3rd Quarter and we're at a total of SEVEN traveling calls.

Calls are going against both teams, different players and all refs are getting involved now.

Hmmmm.
