I would think that's appallingly low for a "great" performance.

You are probably underestimating what a good/great performance is at that level. Or perhaps you are of the opinion that if Official X calls a call, it must be right because of where he's been and what he's done.

I think you have to factor into this that judgment plays a part in each block/charge call and evaluations of such calls [mostly likely taking place in slo-mo while the calls are made real-time] would give opportunity for anyone to second guess several of their own decisions... throw in the fact that someone else may be the judge of correctness and now their judgment clouds the issue and 80% starts to look pretty good!
