Team A is clearly blowing out B - the final score was 75 to 25, with most of B's points scored in the final quarter when A's center and forwards remained at their own basket and only sending the guards down for defense.
Team B was commiting most of the fouls and I went easy on them once they were about 25 points behind. These weren't hard fouls, mostly just the normal, inadvertant contact under the basket. Furthermore, I didn't feel I should whistle team A for what I wasn't calling on team B.
What guidelines do experienced officials use in such situations? Call all fouls normally which would allow the obviously superior team to increase their lead and extend the duration of the massacre? Go harder on the superior team? Other???
