Block/Charge - Beating a Dead Horse

I am sure this has been beaten to death....but here goes nothing.

A recurring theme this year for me has been watching a lot of plays at the basket where the defender starts to fall backwards before contact. Inevitably, there is some contact, but I have a hard time blowing a block or charge. I have been averaging about 50% no call, 35% block and 15% charge. I am not saying this is right or wrong but the effect is that about 90% of the time, I don't blow right away - my partner is coming in with a block/charge. I have been considering discussing this more in the pre-game. It's my opinion that not every block/charge has to be called if we are consistent.

Has anyone ever thought about your percentages? Is there a good rule of thumb?

Charge (% of time)
Block (% of time)
No Call (% of time)
