Question

I am a fan of basketball and hopefully a HS Coach if given the opportunity. My question to the forum is in the last 2 or 3 minutes of a game and the team with the lead is getting fouled to get them to the foul line, are referees taught to allow a certain amount of contact if it doesn't cause a turnover or injury? My point being that though there are fouls being performed, many officials are allowing the fouls. I think it is based on trying not to give too much to the losing team, along with trying to balance the leading team's right to have the obvious foul being called. I think as a ref I would have a hard time balancing those two things - what do ya'll think??
