As the second game approaches, fans are mentally prepared because they already know that Scott Foster and Tony Brads will serve as referees.
Oklahoma City Thunder led 1-0 in the series against the Minnesota Timberwolves, and many expected Game 2 to be another fierce showdown. The biggest highlight of the first game was Shay Gilgers-Alexander and the calls he received, while the Timberwolves received no calls. As the second game approaches, fans are also mentally prepared because they already know who will be the referee.
"Scott Foster, Tony Braddes, Pat Frech and JB De Rosa will enforce the second game of the Timberwolves against the Thunder tonight," journalist Clement Almansa wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
fans expressed their feelings after realizing that Foster and Brads will enforce the same game.
"Oh my god... It's a crime to put Foster and Brads in the same group of referees," one user wrote.
"Foster and Brads? There will definitely be some pranks. Just don't know who it is," another user wrote.
"So neither Caruso nor Dort will foul the end of the third quarter," the third user wrote.
Many fans do not like Foster and Brades's yelling methods over the years, and the results of the second game are also worth paying attention to.
The Thunder were called foul in Game 1
After the first game, there were many discussions about how Shea Gilgers-Alexander was called foul, and Nick Wright also made a long comment on the Thunder defender.
"The Thunder guard's style—the playoff level physical defense, very good—there was a squad against Shay first, then slammed down like a sniper in the audience, and was called foul again and again, and the contrast between the two was really crazy," Wright said.
In the first game, people felt that the Thunder had received a lot of calls, and the Timberwolves were not as proactive as he did on the defensive end. Rudy Gobert shared his opinion on the lack of fouls and said the Timberwolves must overcome this difficulty.
"I don't expect them to get a call. [The Thunder] are very good at defending. Some moves aren't yelling at all... They play very hard," Gobert said. "We know that, we know there are steals, fouls, but we know we won't get all these calls. We have to keep over this. We can't let the call turnover or missed shots affect us going to the next round and do what we should do."
