Why Warriors and Celtics fans are concerned over referee Scott Foster's Game 3 appointment in the NBA Finals

Hours before Game 3 of the NBA Finals tips off there are already wild speculative concerns that somehow things won’t go the way of the Golden State Warriors or the Boston Celtics, and it’s thanks to one man: Scott Foster.

Foster is an NBA official who has become a proto-boogeyman for basketball fans to point to and blame when things don’t work out for their favorite team because of poor officiating. He will be leading the officiating crew for Wednesday’s game. The funny thing about this characterization is that somehow both Warriors and Celtics fans think they’re getting screwed because of this assignment.
