The NBA referees are going through it after missing a crucial call in the Los Angeles Lakers-Boston Celtics game on Saturday.

James was fouled during the climax of the game – with the score tied at 105 and with less than five seconds on the clock at the end of regulation. The Lakers superstar was hit on his left arm by Jayson Tatum, but referees didn’t even sound a whistle, prompting James to scream at officials about the missed call.

Replays showed the clear foul – Los Angeles guard Patrick Beverley even tried to change referee Eric Lewis’ mind by but was rewarded a technical instead. The evidence wasn’t enough – “The best player on earth can’t get a call. It’s amazing,” Lakers coach Darvin Ham said postgame.“We don’t have room for error,” James said after Saturday’s game. “And it’s one of the best games we played all year. For it to fall on somebody else’s judgment, or non-judgment, it’s just ridiculous. It’s ridiculous.”

James also quote tweeted a post that showed other recent game-altering missed calls that went against him and the Lakers, proclaiming, “I don’t understand. I truly don’t.”

JESUS!!!! THIS GUY AGAIN!!!! Every time I'm on my laptop...GODDAMN if Lebron James is not mentioned.

They miss calls every game, but this one is ‘gut wrenching’?

His temper tantrum is embarrassing. How many junior high or hs players see that and act out when they don’t get a call…

Wtf lmao

Nobody's losing sleep over the Fakers.

Oh well, back to real news
