LeBron James has gone viral over the weekend for his reaction to the missed foul call that robbed the Los Angeles Lakers of a win against the Boston Celtics. The King was hacked by Jayson Tatum, but the referees admittedly made a mistake by not blowing the whistle. The matter has drawn more attention than it might originally have, thanks to the reaction that James had.
LeBron James was on the court where he threw what could even be described as a bit of a tantrum after the non-call. This was followed up by Patrick Beverley, who arguably got the most hilarious technical of all time. LeBron’s reaction had fans across the league reacting to it, and since that day, other players and media members have been reacting to it as well.
Chandler Parsons’ Crazy Comparison When Roasting LeBron James For His Reaction
The Los Angeles Lakers have been robbed by the referees time and again this season, they could have been the sixth seed if crucial calls had gone their way. LeBron James has mentioned the lack of attention the Lakers have received from the officials before too, and his free throws attempted are notoriously less than that of other star players in the league. So even though the reaction was warranted thanks to a lot of things piling up, Chandler Parsons was one of the people not impressed by it.

“I can watch my French Bulldog get ran over by the Mailman right now, and I would not react like that” 🤦😂@ChandlerParsons on LeBron’s dramatic reaction to controversial no-call at end of Celtics vs Lakers game #RunItBack with @bansky @ShamsCharania & @MichelleDBeadle pic.twitter.com/idUym6sKld

“I will say this, I can watch my French Bulldog get ran over by the mailman right now and I would not react like that. That was one of the craziest reactions. It is way more, it’s so impressive that he cares that much on a regular season game that he cares that much?”
The last part of this sounds like a compliment, but it’s clear that Parsons thinks James reacted way too intensely for something of this nature. Every win matters for the Los Angeles Lakers at the moment. Even LeBron James knows that there is very little chance that he will play forever. So it’s no surprise that he is this invested in how their results turn out.
Ultimately, the situation will put pressure on NBA referees to call it when LeBron James gets fouled, which the King is smart enough to know. The Lakers are likely to get a kinder whistle after this debacle, and they need to capitalize on it if they want to make it into the playoffs this season.
