WEBVTT - What will we do about Scott Foster?

0:00:00.760 --> 0:00:05.560
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to the Hottest, the Hottest.

0:00:05.680 --> 0:00:07.440
<v Speaker 2>It be a podcast out here.

0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I said what I said, it's the heat Check Check.

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:16.560
<v Speaker 2>It's just a creaking on this episode of the Heat Check.

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.400
<v Speaker 3>It's time to come out of your turkey coma, folks,

0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:25.040
<v Speaker 3>because we are now in the zone between Thanksgiving and

0:00:25.079 --> 0:00:27.960
<v Speaker 3>the Christmas holidays, December holidays.

0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Let's be non denominational.

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 3>And damn it, if the NBA isn't already on some

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:38.159
<v Speaker 3>mo shit already stepping in dominating the news. I'm fired

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:40.760
<v Speaker 3>up about it. I'm fired up about this scenario. This

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:42.159
<v Speaker 3>guy gotta fucking go.

0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Who is he? I'll tell you in a second.

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 3>And I asked the important question, what the fuck are

0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 3>the Dallas Mavericks doing?

0:00:51.080 --> 0:00:54.360
<v Speaker 2>We also give the Hemi Award out to a rookie.

0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:57.520
<v Speaker 2>Let's get right into it. William drop that motherfucker beat

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:04.840
<v Speaker 2>that should be Rihanna. Oh boy, oh.

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:10.400
<v Speaker 3>I am fired up about this, sir. You have got

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:14.840
<v Speaker 3>to go. Who am I talking about? I think if

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:19.320
<v Speaker 3>you are watching the games, you know who I'm talking about.

0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking about.

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:26.000
<v Speaker 3>Scott Foster, a referee, and I don't think he should

0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 3>really exist in the NBA game. Someone needs to take

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:33.280
<v Speaker 3>his whistle away. Someone needs I'm sorry, you gotta go.

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:37.960
<v Speaker 3>It's time for your ass to dip set. This is

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:43.160
<v Speaker 3>a SoundBite and a fired up in the same exact segment.

0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:45.960
<v Speaker 2>It deserves to be investigated.

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:49.360
<v Speaker 3>At Adam, you need to step in because this behavior,

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:50.680
<v Speaker 3>oh my vein in.

0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 2>The middle of the forehead is going. That's how you

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:53.720
<v Speaker 2>know I'm fired up.

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 3>There is no way that this behavior can go unchecked. No,

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.680
<v Speaker 3>let's say it all together. It's a Scott Foster game.

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:07.080
<v Speaker 3>It's a Scott Foster game. Yes, sir, let's play.

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:11.639
<v Speaker 2>The clip from back behind the scenes years ago. Man,

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 2>it's here, it'steresingportant. Let's get the greatest fears of coming true.

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:18.240
<v Speaker 3>It's a Scott Foster game.

0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:21.160
<v Speaker 2>It's a Scott Foster game. Yes it is, Yes, it is.

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:23.600
<v Speaker 3>And if you're Chris Paul, that's those are the worst

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:26.200
<v Speaker 3>words you could possibly hear. I kind of made this

0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 3>famous back in twenty twenty twenty one. That was three

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 3>seasons ago. No, yeah, yes, three seasons ago. Even the

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 3>amount of fuckery then was enough to warrant headline news.

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 3>Reason there is a reason why Chris Paul is one

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 3>in thirteen in his last fourteen games.

0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 2>When Scott Foster refs in.

0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 3>His career, in his career, he's three and seventeen overall.

0:02:56.440 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm getting steamy in here. My face is flushed. That

0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:05.120
<v Speaker 2>in itself boggles the mind. That right there.

0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:11.519
<v Speaker 3>But here's the thing that's impossible to reconcile. Chris Paul's

0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:18.160
<v Speaker 3>teams were favored in fifteen of those twenty games.

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 2>That's insane. That is it's a Scott Foster game.

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.119
<v Speaker 3>I've talked about this forever, but the more you think

0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 3>about it, it's like, how could it be?

0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:30.000
<v Speaker 2>How could it be?

0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 3>There's no way. This is a kowinky dink, you know

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 3>what I mean. This is the influence of a man

0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 3>putting his thumb on the scale. It's a Scott Foster game.

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 3>And now we have even more evidence that this is

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 3>an intentional beef, that this is something brewing with Chris

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:50.760
<v Speaker 3>Paul's latest run in with Scott Foster.

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Here's the situation, folks.

0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 3>Foster whistled Chris Paul for a foul on Kevin Durant

0:03:57.400 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 3>in the first half of their game with the Suns,

0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 3>and of course Foster was not content to let sleeping

0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 3>dog lies and I don't know why, but it escalated fast.

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:12.840
<v Speaker 3>Apparently Chris Paul complained to Foster and he hit that

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:17.640
<v Speaker 3>deep woop, you're a oh oo technical and I don't

0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 3>even know what you can say. Then and he hit

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:23.120
<v Speaker 3>him with this tech because of course he did.

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.039
<v Speaker 2>And this is the crux of the issue.

0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:31.760
<v Speaker 3>Chris Paul claims that in that altercation, Scott Foster was

0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 3>talking about little Chris, talking about his son, and then

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.160
<v Speaker 3>he said, you're a bitch.

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.320
<v Speaker 2>I saw it on his lips twice. You're a bitch.

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:45.479
<v Speaker 3>You're a bitch, because why Scott was doing, Foster was

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:47.960
<v Speaker 3>doing very much bitch behavior.

0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 2>And then Foster was like, you're out of here, You're

0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:51.360
<v Speaker 2>fucking out.

0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 3>Second tech and sixty seconds, just like that, gone in

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 3>sixty seconds, another Chris Paul ejection, like clockwork, another CP

0:04:58.920 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 3>three team loss.

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:03.440
<v Speaker 2>You had Steve Kerr going at it with Scott Foster

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:04.640
<v Speaker 2>after the tech.

0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:07.640
<v Speaker 3>You had Kevin Durantman like, ooh, this seems like it's

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:13.200
<v Speaker 3>a little bit more than a referee player squabble. And

0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:15.160
<v Speaker 3>then of course the Warriors get beaten by the Suns

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:19.479
<v Speaker 3>without their second point guard on the floor. After this game,

0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:22.840
<v Speaker 3>here's where it gets a little fishy. Both sides had

0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:27.560
<v Speaker 3>different stories. Foster said the first technical was given for

0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 3>unsportsmanlike conduct. The second tech was because Chris Paul continued

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 3>to complain and received a second unsportsmanlike technical foul a ka,

0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:40.839
<v Speaker 3>he called me a bitch.

0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:42.960
<v Speaker 2>And let me tell you.

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:50.359
<v Speaker 3>Chris Paul's recollection of things is the SoundBite of the week.

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:56.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's personal. Yeah, we had a situation some years ago,

0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:00.279
<v Speaker 4>and it's personal, you know what I mean, Like, okay,

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 4>we know, everybody know, it's.

0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:05.719
<v Speaker 5>Been a meeting and all that, and me just a

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 5>situation with my son, and so it's yeah, we Yeah,

0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 5>So I'm okay with a ref talking, you know what

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm saying, whatever saying, just don't use a tech to

0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:21.520
<v Speaker 5>get your point across.

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:21.720
<v Speaker 1>You know what I mean.

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:25.640
<v Speaker 4>So I gotta do a better job making sure I

0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 4>stay on the floor for my teammates.

0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, that's that's that.

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 1>He said, it's a situation with your son.

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:34.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, they know what it is.

0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 5>You know what it is, too, So we.

0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:40.600
<v Speaker 3>Don't know what it is.

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 2>Pause.

0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:47.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Chris, we don't know what it is. Like you know,

0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 3>Scott knows, the league knows, the team knows, but we

0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:52.120
<v Speaker 3>don't know what it is.

0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's just no I had a meeting with him,

0:06:56.400 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 1>my dad, Doc Rivers.

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:13.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeahs.

0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:17.520
<v Speaker 2>Sierri Hey, Siri. When did Chris Paul play for the Clippers?

0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 4>He played for the Los Angeles Clippers from twenty eleven

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 4>to twenty seventeen before Trade sent him to the Houston Rockets.

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:33.240
<v Speaker 3>That at the very least, at the very like earliest, no,

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 3>the latest, the very least six year old beef Stix.

0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 3>He met with Bob, his dad, His dad, Bob de Laney,

0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.120
<v Speaker 3>Doc Rivers, Scott Foster.

0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:50.840
<v Speaker 2>We just knowing about this. I am intrigued.

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 3>And the rumors on Reddit can't be real, but they

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:58.960
<v Speaker 3>are delicious. Apparently on Reddit, the rumor is that Scott

0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Foster has a little Foster, and little Foster also a

0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.960
<v Speaker 3>baby Ref and the baby Ref apparently, according to Reddit,

0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 3>not Trista was doing Scott Foster things to Chris Paul's son,

0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:15.320
<v Speaker 3>and apparently Scott Foster was probably like, yeah, your son's

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:17.760
<v Speaker 3>a bitch like you, and that's why we tee him

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 3>up every time we see his ass.

0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:23.640
<v Speaker 2>Are we serious? Is this true? Why? I don't know?

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 2>All I know?

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 3>This is weird this is some suspect ash shit. I

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:30.680
<v Speaker 3>need someone to get to the truth of it. Adam,

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm where are you at. I need a meeting, I

0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:37.120
<v Speaker 3>need a presser. I need you to go on NBA

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:40.320
<v Speaker 3>today and give us some clarity, shed some light on

0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:43.880
<v Speaker 3>the matter. What happens next? I tell you what should

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:48.680
<v Speaker 3>happen next. Scott Foster cannot referee games that Chris Paul

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.439
<v Speaker 3>is in. They just cannot happen. You can't have these

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.920
<v Speaker 3>guys on the floor together. This might come down to

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 3>a straight up malice in the palace situation between ref

0:08:59.040 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 3>and player.

0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:01.760
<v Speaker 2>This is not good for anybody.

0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Unfortunately, I can guarantee you pretty much guarantee you if

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:08.600
<v Speaker 3>the Warriors make the playoffs, that is that Scott Foster

0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:12.320
<v Speaker 3>will ref a Warrior's game and Chris Paul will be ejected.

0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:17.040
<v Speaker 3>And that's not right, that's not fair, that is not

0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:20.520
<v Speaker 3>not just especially for our gumps.
