LeBron James was not pleased with how Monday night’s game between the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers played out.
Boston had a shot to win the game when guard Jaylen Brown pulled up for a jump shot with three seconds left. As Brown shot the ball, Pacers guard Buddy Hield appeared to make contact with Brown’s head, which officials ruled a foul. Indiana challenged the call—which was overturned—and ultimately won the game, 133–131, after yet another questionable call from the officials occurred.
Meantime, the Los Angeles Lakers star, who was critical of referees after his potential game-tying three-pointer in a December game against the Minnesota Timberwolves was ruled a two, was paying close attention.
