    Lol, Foster will find a way to ruin that too. Momentum calling fouls/phantom fouls/making players worried about landing since GSW doesn't have to worry about fouls. It sucks

    lulz...this is just like pointing to FTAs to say a game was equal
    • One loss was for Lebron to get a ring
    • One loss was when GSW was up 3-0 v Spurs in 1st Round last year
    • One loss was when GSW was up 2-0 v NOLA last year
    • the 4th loss was when Durant/WB were not to be denied and beat them by 28pts, up 25 at half, and 37 after 3rd Q
    fwiw: That post was 2yrs ago.
    • And lulz at the HOU loss when we're down 0-2, first round, in our shittiest year with Dwight (2016), facing a 73-win team, rolling out JBB as coach,...and Curry injured due to Butt Sweat, and Klay goes 0-7. GSW was not really threatened. That's worse than Rockets fans blaming Game 4, up 3-0 on Utah to Tony Brothers.
    • The Lebron loss in 2015 was when Foster was probably told to extend the series and help Lebron because Kyrie and Love were gone for the series. And it was GSW's worst shooting night of last 5 yrs (I think): 8-35...Curry went 2-15 and Klay 4-12 and Barnes 0-4.
    • And especially lulz at the OKC loss when Durant/WB were not to be denied no matter who ref'd, winning by 28, up by 37 at end of 3Q, up 25 at end of half.
    • Then he uses the point spread of the OKC blowout to justify something???

    I mean the league could have picked any ref at all and it would have been better than the one ref who the entire players association hates...and you put him in under the scrutiny of the biggest moment of the NBA season after 48 hours of constant complaints about the state of refereeing in the NBA? It's like the NBA is going out of their way to shoot themselves in the foot.

    Like Jon Snow and DaenerysTargaryen, the Warriors have plot armor and can't be beaten. Let's be real here.

    Can the league allow a Rockets v. Nuggets/Portland WCF? Anyone up for Milwaukee v. Toronto in the ECF? Rockets v. Toronto finals anyone? Rockets v. Milwaukee? Might as well send the broadcast team home because nobody is going to watch.

    So this is the bottom line. The hate is real now - we need to spend the first three minutes of the game sliding under the feet of curry and Thompson. This is as much against the league as it is the Warriors. I want us to, I know this fan base wants this badly, but the fix is in. But the league is never going to allow that to happen. So I'm good with taking down GS and the league a different way. I only endorse this because the Warriors deliberately tried to Zaza Harden. At that point, it's war.

    Harden called him out last time so let's see if Foster still screws him.

    I’m definitely planning on this one being a loss now. Look for Harden and/or Paul to get into major foul trouble early on (unlike Game 1, as bad as the reffing was). This is going to be ugly with the Rockets getting screwed on both ends of the court.

    If we win. It’s going to be really interesting to see how you all rationalize things.

    Nice try Warriors shills/fans

    "But but but the Warriors don't like Scott Foster either and he's a problem for us!"

    You're 4-4/.500. Instead of winning by a lot, you win by a few.

    Houston is winless. None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Nothing. 0.
    Chris Paul, winless.

    4 wins. Nothing. 4 wins. Nothing. 4 wins. Nothing. ... Yeah, I'd take those 4 wins.

    Curry has fouled out 12 times, once with Scott Foster (Game 6 NBA Finals, 2016)

    Harden has fouled out 13 times, three times with Scott Foster (Spurs blowout Game 7 2017, Clippers RS 2017, Lakers RS 2019)

    Give me a break. :rolleyes:

    It’s gettin to the point that they should probably hold a televised live lottery like the nba draft for referees for the upcoming games.

    Scott foster hasn’t officiated a rockets game since what February? And he’s just selected to officiate in a rockets vs. warriors playoff game? how can you not see how suspicious that looks?

    Why didn’t he officiate one of the jazz playoff games?

    Who am I kidding, the league would still rig the lottery like they did with Derrick rose to the bulls.

    Uh, did you notice (the refs' effects on) shots last game? Or G7 WCF'18?

    In theory, spot on.

    Just play ball!
    I know you might foul out Chris or James on some bullshit calls
    or you might sprain an ankle (or something worse)
    but damn it, just overcome those corrupt refs and play ball!
