The Los Angeles Lakers fans have had enough of the 2021/22 team. They would be out of the playoffs without the play-in tournament, even though they were considered big favorites to the championship before the start of the campaign. After a blowout loss against the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday, many fans showed their discomfort with the team’s level.
Several players, including LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, and Trevor Ariza were spotted going at it with fans on the stands. Nobody likes the way things are going for the Lakers right now and fans let them know what was happening.
Footage showing LeBron telling a fan to ‘shut his a** up’ went viral on social media and everybody had something to say about it. One of the players that suffered this in the past also reacted to the video, reminding people that the Lakers fanbase can be ruthless when the team isn’t playing well.
Kyle Kuzma took to Twitter to talk about how hard it is to please Lakers fans. He made a joke about how intense they can be about the team.
One thing about the purp and gold they will be on your bumper!!!!

Kuz was always the subject of criticism during his time at formerly named Staples Center. The Washington Wizards forward was considered a bad player in the eyes of many, who celebrated when he left the squad last year.
He has improved his level in D.C. this season, showing that he can be a valuable piece in the league. Meanwhile, he still pays attention to the things happening in Lakers Nation, having a laugh when the situation isn’t good.
The Lakers will face another challenge tonight, as they take on Luka Doncic and his Dallas Mavericks, who are inspired after coming back from a 20+ deficit against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday.
