No one really likes Scott Foster, he is the new Joey Crawford, the Warriors in particular don’t like him and with such an important game happening tonight, he was benched by the NBA.
Warriors-OKC Game 7 officials: Danny Crawford, Mike Callahan, Jason Phillips.

I believe the NBA went off-schedule on this one to go with Danny Crawford over Scott Foster, who is, of course, not a Warriors favorite.

The conspiracy theorist are going crazy on social media, but wouldn’t this be the best way to make sure there isn’t a conspiracy? Either way you can see how it would make people raise an eyebrow.
If the NBA thinks that Crawford is that influential of a ref, maybe he shouldn’t be reffing any games in the playoffs.
Something to consider while you are watching game 7.
