The reason most only call a T as a VERY VERY VERY last resort is the support we receive from evaluators and peers. It is not a very good reason but if you are a young ref you have to be so careful about the reputation you receive and the politics. No one ever remembers the T's you do not call they only remember the ones that are called.

You know the first thing people will say in a blow out game is "why did he call that with 30 seconds left. He should have called it sooner, etc."

Look at an earlier thread talking about granting a time out when the coach wanted a T called. I know there were many people who said to themselves that it was overboard. Infact there was at least one reply that said it.
