Well you call that unintentional. I call it intentional. Nobody is born with a bias to favour Lebron James over Raul Neto. Refs are drilled to favour stars and extend series. That is implied. They understand that stars are not supposed to foul out, so they get very creative, when assigning fouls for example.
