After that game Foster was 7-1 in the playoffs for the Road team. I then whent on to Bet Houston on the road in game 6 vs Clippers where Foster was sent in. I won that bet too w/ Houston winning by 12 pts on the road.

I then whent on to bet Cavs on the Road  game 1 ECF vs Atlanta because Foster was again sent in. This is what i had posted about that game:

"Foster is 8-1 SU for the Road team after that Houston win and cover. If Cavs wins this 1st game it takes away home court advantage from the Hawks - wich is perhaps what the league would want to get their cash cow Lebron the chance to advance to the finals. So as i've been saying now for the last 3 season "if indeed the Cavs are supposed to advance they will take this 1st game t insure that agenda".



Play


CLE +1.5"

Cavs won by 8 pts. Foster was then 9-1 for the Road team these playoffs.

Foster then whent on to Ref game 3 of GSW/Houston series. I bet Warriors since they were on the road and  they blew out Houston by 25pts. Foster is now 10-1 for the Road team these playoffs.

But things get a little interesting w/ the other two refs.......

Brothers is 9-3 for the Home team.
Zarba is 7-3 for the Home team.

These two are 16-6 combined for the Home Team.
So now combined these refs are 17-10 for the Home team.

Obviously if the other two refs were on the same page as Foster it wouldn't even be a question here and i blindly put my money on the Cavs. I do already lean the Cavs for game 2, especially because Irving is out......so Foster does make my lean closer to a play. But these other 2 refs has me 2nd guessing a little, specifically Brothers since i just made a winning wager 2 games ago on Warriors in that elimination game because GSW were @ Home. Let's take a look at their regular stats.

When home team is fave by between 5-9.5:

Brothers: 8-12
Zarba: 8-14
Foster: 9-13

= 25-39 for the Road team


So far i have not been using reg stats to base my plays on, strictly playoff stats. I think i may use reg stats this time round since it is the finals now and stats over all for refs become more a factor. Foster being the head ref also is significant here.10-1 is just too glaring. When Foster's the head honcho the other two merely follow. Remember also that Foster was in Donaghy's book, stating that Foster was the recipient of 134 phone calls from Donaghy and that a report said that Donaghy called Foster more than any other ref and that he didn’t call any other official more than 13 times. This guy is a crooked as they get. Let's se if i can be on the same side w/ him.

I think it screams to take GSW. Game 1, line opened at -6.5 - GSW covers, game 2 line opened at -7 - Cavs wins straight up. And one more thing, this league has the interest to make it to 7 games, because there is a lot more money they will make. More than by raping the betting public in G6.Cavs should take it, with ref's help if need
