Make the call

Manipulating in every fashion the most powerful variable in any sport, human officiating, is the design of all competitors. But if these NBA refs don’t start calling the obvious Flagrant 2 fouls, like blood-drawing swings to the mouth, it will progress to players’ punching jump shooters in the face while simply in the act of shooting. Then claim it is only a “playoff foul,” and just a “game-winning” play.
