Pregame scouting/team tendencies

[stosh]

Let's turn it around.

Do you talk to your team about tendancies of the officials working your game? Isn't that taking advantage of your knowledge of the officials? Suppose a certain official is less likely to call three seconds, would you tell your post players to stay in the lane a little longer?

I think it's perfectly fine for officials to share as much information as they have about the teams, coaches, gym, score table personnel, and anyone else who has relevance in calling a fair game.
