If you "call it both ways" you won't have this problem.

I love hearing this one... especially when the team whining for calls and wanting an even foul count is a jump shooting team that makes 1 or 2 passes and launches the ball from NBA 3pt range, while the team getting more calls is running a real half-court set, driving the ball, and working for rebounds.

I love hearing it on the very first foul.

Even better...when the count is in their favor. Happens a few times a year. Heck I had a coach still moaning about fouls when the other team was down to 3 players from foul outs in a 60+ foul count game.

Ha! Yep, I had that happen last year. Home team committed the first 6 fouls of the game, none yet on visitors. The very first foul on visitors, only about 10 mins into the game, and there it is from the head coach: "CALL IT BOTH WAYS".

I wouldn't say it, but I really wanted to say "well, we're finally starting to".
