The NBA has to do this on purpose. Even if not for conspiracy, but just to feed into this narrative and get what little extra % of people they can to tune in for the Foster narrative. It’s crazy a ref can have this level of impact on a game just by being announced. I wonder if the betting lines have swung at all.

What are you saying here? It honestly seems to just be a rotation of the top lead officials.

Zarba game 1 Brothers game 2 Davis game 3 Foster game 4

And honestly if there is any ref to complain about it’s Marc Davis. At least with Brothers and Foster you know what you are getting, Brothers lets them play, Foster calls more fouls - Davis just makes it up as the game goes, inevitably blows one review call and will call fouls he didn’t call early or not call stuff he whistled for previously.

Especially for someone that has a big baggage as him. I think Tony Brothers is a worse referee but Scott Foster has his nickname for a good reason and proved that right over so many playoff games.

nbaistheworst

-7 | 4 hours ago

The mods’ deletions are eerily random - but this has already been up longer than the 1st one.

There’s plenty of evidence that Foster’s extender reputation is based on a few outliers and not his full body of work, but why the mods don’t want him discussed doesn’t make sense to me.

supacatkid | Thunder

He does call a lot of fouls. Much much more consistently than Marc Davis, wouldn’t be surprised if from the start there is a consistent whistle and then the players will settle into the game.

Legit question, but why can’t NBA dedicate one ref crew for each playoff series? Everyone seems to agree game 1 was the perfect middle ground of competitiveness & physicality, and would allow the series refs to be more in tune with the players and how the series is playing out

Sure you can. once teams get that the game is going to be completely one-sided (when all contact is ignored) they just try to avoid injury in the next 3 quarters.

He relishes getting no calls as Scott foster extends the series? Weird, but I won’t kink shame.

Scott Foster assigned as a referee for the Game 4 between Thunder vs Spurs.
