I realized a long time ago that the NBA is just entertainment just like the WWE. It's not about the sport. I just follow the stories through Reddit and KZfaq now. I watch games only during the playoffs. It's unbearable to watch a game laden with fouls and flopping now. I remember coming back to basketball after many years, this was when the Raptors were on the rise, first playoff game in a while. I remember setting up our big TV in the kitchen, only for a foul to be called with the first few seconds... come on.

@roboninja3194 5 ай бұрын

Yea the competition part is gone. The NBA itself is clearly rigging these games. Last season was so egregious with the Lakers free throw differential. The NBA was doing everything they could to get the Lakers into the finals. It was really bad in the Lakers/Warriors series. Lakers shot twice as many free throws as the Warriors and idiot fans were saying things like "The Lakers are a team that plays in the paint" but in 3 of the 6 games the Warriors had the same amount of points in the paint that the Lakers had. And if ya actually watched the games you saw how a ton of fouls were being called on the perimeter against the Warriors. Refs tried to do the same thing when the Lakers played the Nuggets. There were so many awful calls but Denver kept hitting shots and overcame it. Last season the Lakers shot 500+ more free throws than their opponents. And this year they're in the top 5 again in free throw differential while being the team with the least amount of fouls called on them.

I'm a referee who watched the Timberwolves vs Nuggets in Minneapolis. I was stunned at Foster's reffing that game. He has more highlights on the big screen than the players did because he has so many bad calls, all against the Timberwolves which can only make one suspect that Foster getting paid on the side for his performance. I saw that he was right there with clear view of the play and missed making the call on Nuggets fouls and called fouls that weren't there on the T-Wolves, including a clearly planted Karl Anthony Towns who was called for the foul rather than drawing the charge. He needs to be investigated.

And now today, having Chris Paul on our team makes us even more of a playoff target!! Anyway, screw this dude.

I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American and male. I have a story about Scott Foster, from 1995-96. It came I think three DAYS after the Magic Johnson incident. I was at a Portland at Seattle game. Detlef Schrempf wasn't getting calls on offense, and he was complaining at Scott Foster a lot. He upfaked Clifford Robinson, and drew contact, and finally got to the free-throw line. Scott Foster said to Detlef, "The reason why I didn't give you any calls earlier, is because I didn't feel like it. And, I'm not gonna give you any more calls tonight." Before shooting his free-throw, Detlef mumbled, "F--ked Magic over." Scott Foster blew his whistle, "That's it! Technical foul on Number 11!" The Key Arena went crazy. Detlef was saying, "You thought that I was talking about YOU?" Detlef complained to respected veteran referee Hugh Evans, and Hugh was trying to calm Detlef down. Schrempf kept complaining at Scott Foster. To end the 3rd quarter, Detlef shot a 3-pointer, and Dontonio Wingfield of the Blazers knocked him down at the buzzer. No foul. Detlef got so mad, he slapped the floor. He then stook up, and glared at Scott Foster for a couple of minutes!

Haven't watched the video yet but I think I know why they keep Foster around. They make him officiate important games because he is able to extremely easily sway the course of entire series', allowing the NBA to predetermine which teams make it to the finals for maximum revenue. I'm not saying the NBA is scripted, but they always want matchups that will make them money, which is why you will never see something like a Cavs Nuggets finals. You can even see this in the in season tournament, the Pacers advanced, so they had to put them against the most popular team in the league so that people would watch. They wanted the Lakers to win from the start so that Lebron can win the first ever IST and when he retires they can name the trophy after him. The NBA likes using Foster because he already has a reputation and is able to get away with things without making the NBA look bad by having every ref be biased. Retired players and refs have even come out and talked about it before, the most famous instance being Evan Turner and Andre Iguodala (obviously active players are not legally allowed to talk about it). If you're the Raptors or one of the less popular teams in the league and you make it to the semis against the Lakers, Warriors, Bucks, Suns, or any team that will make the NBA lots of money, "you need to win by 15 just to win by 1". They call it "fixing" games and it has been a thing for a long time, Foster just so happens to be the most convenient "fixer". They also do the same thing when trying to push series' to game 7 as much as possible. More games = more tickets = more money. Popular teams = more fans = more people tuned in = more money. It is a business at the end of the day and Scott Foster is extremely good for their business. edit: shouldve watched the vid first lmao

Great post. Which is why I’ll be placing 10K on the Knicks ML tomorrow vs the Pacers. Knicks vs Celtics = dollars. And let’s guess who’s gonna be reffing… I have a hunch 😉

Polt twist: The NBA specifically ask for Scott to officiate CP3's games because they're still trying to punish him for wanting to play with Kobe in LA.

This season each time they went to challenge a call the call was wrong, and I cant tell you the amount of times Im seeing the replay and you can clearly see the refs are calling bs after bs, so either its rigged or this refs are going blind.
