The NBA is no stranger to controversy, especially when it comes to social media. In recent years, several players, coaches and executives have been caught using burner accounts to defend themselves, criticize others or leak information. But now, a new scandal has emerged that involves an NBA referee and his alleged burner account on Twitter.
Does NBA Referee Eric Lewis Have a Burner Account on Twitter?
The account in question is @CuttliffBlair, which goes by the name Blair Cuttliff. The account has been active since 2016 and has posted over 10,000 tweets, mostly about basketball. However, a closer look at the tweets reveals that they all seem to have a connection to NBA referee Eric Lewis.
For example, the account has praised Lewis’ officiating skills, defended him from criticism, shared personal details about his life and career, and even posted photos of him. The account has also followed and interacted with several people who are close to Lewis, such as his family members, friends and colleagues.
The account has also shown a strong bias against certain teams and players, such as the Golden State Warriors, LeBron James and James Harden. The account has accused them of cheating, flopping and complaining to the referees. The account has also expressed disdain for the NBA’s rules and policies, such as the replay system and the fines for technical fouls.
The account was first exposed by a Reddit user who noticed the similarities between the tweets and Lewis’ profile. The user then posted a detailed analysis of the evidence, which quickly gained traction and attention from other users and media outlets. Take a look at some tweets from the alleged burner account.
The NBA has not yet commented on the allegations, but many fans have expressed their outrage and disbelief over the possibility of a referee having a burner account. They have questioned Lewis’ integrity and impartiality as an official and called for an investigation and punishment from the league.
Lewis is a veteran referee who has been working in the NBA since 2006. He has officiated over 1,000 regular season games and over 100 playoff games, including the 2019 NBA Finals. He is also one of the highest-paid referees in the league, earning over $300,000 per year.
