LeBron James Takes Multiple Shots at the NBA in Scathing Comments After Clippers Loss

The pandemic forced many governments and authorities across the world to apply strict policies and safety measures. Approximately two years after the breakout of the pandemic, authorities are following several policies and precautions. And ever since the implementation of these policies, LeBron James has never hesitated in expressing his dislike for them, no matter how necessary. Earlier it was the shortened season and now, it’s the league’s health and safety protocols. Subsequently, in the post-game press conference last night, LeBron James spoke about the protocols which he followed recently.

After the surprising, hard-fought loss to the LA Clippers who were playing without Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James expressed his concerns with the NBA. Especially with its Health and Safety Protocols.

LeBron James expressed disappointment regarding health and safety protocol

Despite returning several days in advance to a regular health protocol isolation, LeBron feels that his case was mishandled. Firstly, while talking about what he felt during the isolation, he said that he felt confused, frustrated, and angry.

Further, when talking about what angered him about the isolation, he said, “What part of the process (angered me)? Uh, the fact that I tested negative first and then my second test came back positive, and usually, when you have a positive test they will test you right away to make sure. And there was not a follow-up test after my positive test, it was straight to isolation.”

Further, he added, “That’s the part that kind of angered me, and I had to figure out a way to get home from Sacramento by myself. They wouldn’t allow anyone to travel with me. No security, no anything, when I traveled back from Sacramento.” He even said that the fact that everyone in his household was also forced into isolation angered him as well.

What does this mean for LeBron and the Lakers?

After the loss against Clippers on home turf, the Lakers will look to bounce back after this defeat. It should delight them that LeBron has returned extremely early.

While LeBron’s comments might show a lapse from the NBA’s end, does that mean the protocols are no longer needed? Or is there a need for change in the execution of the protocols? Let us know what you think.
