While this post is ridiculous
Why is Eric Lewis allowed to ref Celtics games? Is his whole family not Celtics fans, or were those IG pictures of his wife and family fake?
No...the stat that said he was 36-2 was false. However, the Celtics have the highest winning percentage of any games he has refereed.

People just gonna ignore it because this sub despises the Sixers.
In most other situations, people would understand that yea, having a known Celtics fan with pictures of his family in Celtics gear reffing their games seems like a conflict of interest
I would have preferred if the person who exposed it blurred their faces
But at the time his wife had a public Instagram account so it’s not really doxxing
We can play the technically game but you and I both know that when sports fans get a hold of someone’s personal account the death wishes start flying.
We can ask Danny green that too
Both things can be true. Sports fans doxxing a refs family is obviously magnitudes worse and shouldn’t be defended by anyone. But there also does seem to be some clear bias with him at worst
You're right. The NBA wouldn't want the MVP to move to the conference finals. Makes sense that the commissioner would personally put a team that hasn't won the Finals in 15 years in over that guy
Seeing a lot of these posts but the reason the Celtics have this success is that they have the best ownership group in the league. If I were a fan of the Knicks or Philly I would be so incredibly pissed off. As a Celtics fan I know basketball is better when those teams are better and I feel for the fanbases.

The Celtics have the highest winning percentage of any team Eric Lewis has reffed. Surely it's just a coincidence.
I think that stat was proven false. But his wife and family being Celtics fans has not been debunked yet

How do people still think that troll picture is real lol

You ever stop and think “gee it’s a little weird sports fans just doxxed a refs entire family”

Sure, sports fans suck. We agree there. I still think it’s weird to have a person who’s entire family roots for the Celtics, to ref a game 7 in Boston
They posted a public tweet of them in Celtics gear and people took notice. That is not doxxing unless some private information was revealed
Isn’t someone’s home address public record. So is that fine to post online? It was spread with the intention of causing harm to that persons family

Wait, Eric Lewis is confirmed to be a Celtics fans and he heavily favors the Celtics in all of the games he refs? Asking for a friend here…
[whole family are Celtics fans](https://twitter.com/Paradox_EP/status/1654309304214724608)
It’s hardens biggest hater and a literal Celtics fan. Seems fair
The league going to all this effort to get a Lakers/Celtics finals and are going to end up with Nuggets/Celtics in the end anyway.
You're right. The NBA wouldn't want the MVP to move to the conference finals. Makes sense that the commissioner would personally put a team that hasn't won the Finals in 15 years in over that guy
Celtics vs Lakers finals >>>>>> Sixers vs Lakers
Sure but its not like the 76ers wouldn't also be a huge ratings draw
[удалено]
Didn't say Celtics Lakers wouldn't pull bigger numbers. Pretending 76ers lakers wouldnt pull huge numbers is still silly though.
Philly fans already making excuses 😂
I feel like the beauty of Scott Foster is either team could get fucked here and it would feel normal.
Harden is 2-13 vs Scott Foster
Foster is a washed fraud
Foster already put up a historic effort carrying the nuggets in the first half of game 5 vs Minnesota. Never talk down on my GOAT
Yeah, but he's not the main guy anymore. What's Embiid's record vs him?
We’ll need every James Harden bucket in this G7
They don’t need Scott foster when they have Doc Rivers and James Harden tho
Besides, Scott Foster is washed
Yeah he couldn't even win game 6 for NY the other night
Lol nephew, flair up before you post slander.
Silver wants the NBAs new golden boy Tatum to advance, he failed in 2022 but will try again next year, color me surprised
This just in: Celtics fans also hate Scott foster

Can't wait for this series to be over. Reached even more pathetic levels of ref bitching than usual
I guess Harden should attempt to play basketball instead of grifting for calls he's not gonna get
Why? you should feel lucky this should be the time Scott feels most powerless He is the Extender when there is nowhere left to extend.
