Hours After Controversial Loss vs Heat, LeBron James Sends 4-Word Message to Miami

The Los Angeles Lakers suffered another defeat last night at the hands of LeBron James? old team, the Miami Heat. King James had yet another stellar performance, scoring 30 points in the game. But his scoring outburst was not enough to stop Jimmy Butler and Co. from getting the win. The game went down to the wire, and the Lakers lost 107-108.

After the game, the Lakers complained to the NBA league office about several missed calls from the officials that they thought should have gone their way. Hours after the controversial loss, LeBron James sent a 4-word message to Miami.

LeBron James? message to his former team

Even though the game between the Lakers and the Heat ended in controversy, that did not stop LeBron James from showering some love on his former team. ?Home away from home! Love y?all Miami.? King James wrote on his Instagram story. LeBron played in Miami from 2010 to 2014 and led them to two Championships in four finals appearances.

LeBron James got only 4 free throw attempts in Monday?s game. The Lakers believed King James got fouled many times while driving to the basket, but the officials did not blow the whistle in his favor. The Lakers shared several videos with the NBA league office of LeBron potentially getting fouled in last night?s game. But the NBA came out with a statement that all calls made in the last two minutes of the previous night?s Lakers-Heat game were correct, and the referees did not miss any call. King James responded to the NBA?s statement on X, ?The game isn?t won or lost in the last 2 mins! If you know the game things happen throughout the 1st, 2nd. 3rd and first 10 mins of 4th that has MAJOR impact on outcomes.?

Can the Lakers bounce back from the controversial loss?

The Lakers will face the Houston Rockets in the next game. They will hope to bounce back from the controversial loss against the Heat and get back in the winning column. But that will be a tough task if Anthony Davis misses the game due to injury. AD suffered a hip injury during the first half of the Heat game and missed most of the second half because of it. His status for the game against the Rockets is questionable, and he may miss the next game.
