In general, perhaps. But certainly not last night when Amare got t'd up and almost foulded out. And unless Ben Gordon suddenly became a superstar and nobody told me, it wasn't the case against the Bulls on Saturday either.
What they do reward is aggressive offensive players who attack the basket and put pressure on the defense. The Blazers totally failed to do so during the first 15 minutes of last night's game. Once they started attacking the basket and stopped settling for 19 - 23 ft. jump shots, they actually got more calls than Phoenix.
