Scott Foster will not ref a Rockets game in the playoffs this year. He has not had a Rockets game since Harden & Paul called him out by name. In the playoffs all the spotlights are on these games and do you think the NBA wants Harden & Paul to be asked about Foster during the live postgame presss conference? What if Foster is biased again and James brings up he use to have a lot of communication with Tim Donaghy. That would be a nightmare for the NBA.
THis is my main concern. We don't adapt . If they aren't calling similar levels of contact then you need to take matters into your own hands . We've got depth for this very reason . IMO you gotta use Nene , shumpert , green etc to muck it up a bit . The refs are free to **** you all night if you just let them . If the refs start to think they might lose control of the game ..: that's when they are gonna start calling it more evenly and tightly . Granted , there were a bunch of reasons why we lost this one . Primarily , we could rebound and didn't make ANY of the hustle plays . There was no great focus on our part
The NBA will have that bad boy all relaxed and fired up for a game 7 in Golden State..... I figure he is worth around 8-10 points for Golden State.
These guys give me the creeps. Weird, socially awkward trust fund kids that grew up in the illuminati. How does Adam Silver end up in a position of power? Hint: It ain't charisma.
The game 4 refs were definitely bad, but I didn’t feel like they were one sided. Inconsistent on both ends is annoying, but tolerable. What brothers and foster do are the reason the NBA is defined as ‘entertainment.’
Because NBA is influenced. Ever since 2002 Lakers-kings at least, probably earlier. Golden state didn’t sweep the clippers so of course we can’t sweep the jazz and enter round 2 more fresh than them.
