Scott Foster has made his way back to the NBA headlines. And, the reason isn’t a wrong call or a questionable call resulting in the extension of a series. But soon those can be the reasons. As Scott Foster will be officiating Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors. He is the crew chief for the game. And, the fans are now already predicting the results and criticizing the official even before the game has started.

The NBA league is a business and a money-minting business. And, the fans claim the league has brought in Scott Foster for a solid reason, which is to extend the series between the Stephen Curry-led Golden State Warriors and LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers. As of now, the Los Angeles Lakers are leading the series by 2-1. But fans believe it’s going to be a tie as Scott Foster is ready to get some business done.
