“Ledon’tgiveaf*ck”: LeBron James’ Baffling Reaction to Stephen Curry and Chris Paul’s Stellar Play Sends NBA Fans Into Meltdown

The Warriors–Lakers preseason game was a one-way beatdown. The Warriors defeated the LeBron James-less Lakers 125:108. Since this was an exhibition game, marquee players like Stephen Curry and Anthony Davis didn’t even play the complete game and bagged around just 15 minutes. Therefore, the picture is misleading. However, what is not misleading is Jonathan Kuminga’s improved game. He bagged 24 points and eight rebounds, emerging as a leader in both categories. Therefore, Dub Nation has plenty to rejoice about their latest triumph.

However, LeBron James didn’t seem to be impressed with what he witnessed. Many on the internet believe that he doesn’t seem to be bothered by the Warriors. Is that the case?

LeBron James yawns while watching the game

LBJ missed the game despite being fully healthy. As someone who will be 39 in a couple of months, this amount of load management is understandable. He saw the game from the sideline seats and at one point, he didn’t seem amused. But that is surprising considering both Stephen Curry and Chris Paul showed their chops. However, the lack of minutes for them implies that the stellar Wing may have felt a void.

A veteran NBA highlight-maker had his own interpretation while watching this. Gdfactoryclips dropped another banger. In this video, he showcases a few highlights from the game. He titled the video “LeBron is not bothered by the new Warriors 🥱”. In the opening shot, King James is eating popcorn. Then there is a brilliant slow-mo shot of Chris Paul. Then in the next segment, Chris Paul nails a lovely corner mid-ranger. A routine Steph Curry three-point shot also makes an appearance.

Then we see shining Kuminga commit a blunder. Upon receiving the rock just underneath the rim after a brilliant cut and catch, he passes the ball to Curry. The only problem is that Curry is not in the game and is standing out of bounds on the sideline. Paul laughs off the error while the sharpshooter vigorously shakes his head. Then comes the shot, where LeBron lets out a gigantic yawn. The video finishes with Curry and Paul laughing their hearts out.

It was LBJ’s reaction that garnered the most attention. 

Fans react to his yawn

Reacting to the title of the video and the content in it, a user said , “Ledon’tgiveaf*ck😂”.  Multiple users chipped in with “LeYawn”. A fan felt that the absence of both Austin Reaves and LBJ made the game a tough watch, expressing, ”Game was boring without bron n ar”. 

One commenter asked why the stellar superstar should be bothered in the first place, writing, ”I mean what was he supposed to be worried about”. A fan thought otherwise and wrote, ”He has fear of steph man”. A Kobe Bryant fan took a shot at the load management of the Lakers Forward and stated, ”LeBron already sitting down I see”.

Will both Steph and Bron react in similar ways when the Regular Season starts?
