HokiePaul is right, good call selection here, especially early, is a useful tool for cleaning up garbage early.
Maybe I'm wrong for thinking like this, but both coaches are watching the shot. They usually have no idea how late my whistle is unless the foul creates major space between the two players. Marginal- I'm holding. Shot misses rebound even goes remotely in their direction I'm putting air in it. Two hand shove in the back- I'm getting it right then. To me those are the kind that start retaliation in motion.
