On Twitter there are some Denver fans that aren't happy with Tony Brothers.

I don’t think Lakers fans in general like Tony Brothers either…

^ what he said, Erik Lewis #42:

Quote:
Celtics have the highest win percentage (updated after BOS x PHI game 7) with 51 wins and 29 loses (64%) when Erik Lewis officiates.

Erik Lewis’ family all dressed in Celtics gear, and his wife has no shame mentioning her husband on her Celtics themed social media account.

That’s a really bad look.

Silver has 2 headaches now between this and Morant.

It's slow mo so it's hard to tell.
He could have also just been turning back to go down the court as the team scored.

But the controversy sounds better I guess.

Eric Lewis needs to be barred from officiating Celtics and Lakers game. Such a disgrace.

Why can't Silver properly vet refs?

According to 538, the NBA actually assigns the officials for the first 4 games before the series begins. So any of the “they brought Foster in for game 4 to extend the series” is incorrect.

Looks like he was turning to run back and it cuts away too soon. People running wild with it when I think of Davis as actually being one of the better officials. I don't really know though.

Brothers is one of the worst officials though, and he's doing our game. Hooray. Good luck y'all

That referee in the Butler video is not him tho, I think he wasn't even in that game. He was reffing the 76ers game

Yeah I think this was conveniently cropped to make it look like something it wasn’t. Same thing they did with that LeBron / Wiggins play.

The NBA started doing that a while ago to try to counter the conspiracy theories that they were assigning refs on a game to game basis to favor whichever team needed a win in order extend the series and make the maximum revenue from it. It didn't really help. A conspiracy theorist is always going to find conspiracies.

I would also be surprised if they aren’t using a random generator to assign the refs. Maybe with some modifications if a referee requests a day off for a family funeral etc.
