If you are already looking for certain things from certain players/teams, you are more likely to make those calls than if you were not expecting them.

For example, Player A who may have been discussed in pregame as somebody who has a tendancy to travel, is more likely to have a travel called against him than player B who may travel as much as player A, but does not receive the attention during pregame.

According to one official, we have a reputation for setting illegal screens. Trying to be as objective as possible, for a coach , it seems that we are called for setting illegal screens for the slightest infraction and it is not called as often for from teams that do not have this label...

The point I am trying to make is,

Do you think you are more likely to make a call based on reputation, not the actual play?
