This call is stupid and kinda funny, but it's an increasingly rare occurrence.

I thought of that but I just think NBA is more of a blend of entertainment and sports as they let travelling and double dribbling go by design and star treatment is done out of necessity as it's a star driven league and people come to see the stars showcased. It's kind of the WWE of professional sports so I discount it for that.
