    He's doing work for the league. They know they can count on him to give them the results they want.

    Two of them refereed a game that we won, so let's not get too down on ourselves here.

    Cmon be realistic. That **** won’t be close. GS blows them out 4 straight games.

    Houston Cavs would be more competitive and profitable for the league imo

    I really think it's super strange for a league like the nba to keep a shady figure like Foster after what happened...makes me think they're scared of what he can say if he gets canned.

    Even in italian soccer (which was and maybe still is super rigged), they got rid of the refs that were found having phone calls with some general managers etc, it really buffels me that the nba let this guy keep his position.

    Refs will decide who win/lose tonight

    Hopefully with all the crap Houston been through, they give it to us.
    If not, sad day tomorrow.

    Yes, but that was in the road. They are two of the absolute worst refs with regards to home teams. They heavily favor the away team.

    Idc.

    Don’t let them rig. Out play, out hustle and absolutely dominate for one single game.

    Their core 4 have played more minutes than our core 4.

    They are worse with one days rest.

    This is the fourth game with only one rest day between and 3 travels.

    We got to sleep at home.

    Anything is possible.

    I believe...

    Hopefully we will be pleasantly surprised and Foster calls the fouls on Draymond Green that he has been getting away with.

    Hard to fathom isn't it.

    It astounds me that there's people who think the NBA nipped the corruption in the bud when Donaghy left.

    Boy voulgaris is so underrated.

    Great data from one of the best and most famous nba gamblers.

    His name reminds me of Valar Dohaeris/Valar Morghulis!

    Something a Dragon Queen would say.

    One has a direct affect on the outcome of the game... You’d rather have bad/one-sided refs over bad/one-sided commentary?? o_Oo_Oo_O

    Was about to post this. If Harden actually gets a fair whistle, unlike Game 6, then we have a chance. There were multiple 4-5 point swings off Harden non-calls in Game 6 that completely changed the dynamic of the game in the 2H of Game 6.

    Foster lost us game one with two horrible calls in the final 4 minutes....remember Rockets were going to cut the lead to 5 when the ball thrown over mid court and then GS hit the three. Perfect time for the Scott Foster fix to kick in.

    Kinda wish we’d just no react to anything the refs do, heads down and grind it out

    That isn't as easy as you think when you are trying to establish a rhythm and a call effects it. you absolutely have to play the refs game in this NBA. Like it or not they ARE a factor.
