Tonight's refs are Bill Kennedy, Eric Lewis... and Scott Foster.

How likely is it that Foster ensures this series heads back to Boston tied 2-2?

Look on the road you get a tougher whistle. That's just the reality of human psychology that is unavoidable for refs facing a loud home crowd.

That's not an excuse to lose. The C's need to play well enough for it to even matter, they didn't in game 3.

I dont see Scott Foster as an issue like others do around here. Foster just makes the games about himself, he want's to be part of the show.
If Tony Brothers name was announced I'd safely say it's coming back to Boston tied 2-2

Series is now tied. No matter how well Boston plays the NBA will ensure that the game 5 in Boston is the highest rated game of the playoffs. Having a tied series and the chance James goes off for a win is too much for them to turn away.

Yeah I agree.  In the regular season I was a ST holder and thought we got terrible calls for a home team, but in the playoffs we have been treated more than fairly at home I think.

It's not about having an excuse to lose, it's a question of does having one of a few notorious refs make it more difficult?  Foster 'extended' 4 of the 5 series in rounds 1 and 2 that went 5 games.

EDIT - Game 3 isn't pertinent here.  I didn't mention it, and the C's played so badly that a team of 5 refs in Cavs jerseys would have beaten them.  My focus is Game 4.
