LeBron's frustration: Is it just about the game, or something deeper brewing for the King?

“We all knew we were getting a dogfight, two heavyweights going at it … That’s what college football is all about,” said Dillon Gabriel, Oregon Ducks’ quarterback, beautifully summing up the intense Ohio State-Ducks clash. Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, known for his love of college football, had a creative response to the Buckeyes’ loss. And, it triggered a social media meltdown, as fans flooded the comments with apprehension.

By halftime, it was clear the game was a thriller, with both teams taking turns in the lead. As if the back-and-forth action wasn’t enough, the game reached a nail-biting conclusion. With Ohio State driving in the final moments, the outcome was anyone’s guess. Gabriel, sitting on the Ducks’ bench with his headphones on, couldn’t even bear to watch as the tension mounted. Then, in a flash, the Ducks clinched the victory in a heart-stopping finish.

While the Ducks bench jumped in joy, LeBron James had a contrasting mood. Of course, he was supporting the Buckeyes. And the superstar took a hilarious approach to let out his frustration. He shared a GIF of Anger from the famous animated film, Inside Out.

Notably, LeBron James shared the GIF without any context. So, no one’s entirely sure why the superstar was frustrated, resulting in fans swarming the comments with hilarious reactions. King James definitely knows how to keep his fans engaged!

LeBron James’ post leaves fans divided

It’s a well-known fact that James is one of the most popular sportspersons on earth. And, in that case, he also has diehard fans across the globe, waiting to at least get a glimpse of the superstar. In that same vein, when they get to know that Bron is in trouble, they line up, at least on social media, to defend. Similarly, reacting to the superstar’s out-of-context X post, a fan wrote, “Who made you mad??? Give me their name address and number NOWWWW.” I’m sure, he’d had a good laugh, reading these comments.

Moreover, another fan went a step ahead, and showed a little more concern, saying, “Just vent it out here king.” Notably, James is no stranger to venting his feelings. In the latest Netflix sports docuseries, Starting 5, put out his personal life for his fans’ witness. Especially, in an episode where he speaks about Bronny James’ cardiac arrest, the superstar leaves everyone moved with his emotional fatherly words.

On the other hand, a fan took a humorous root to approach Ohio State’s loss. This fan wrote, “Darvin Ham coaches football?” It will indeed move a funny bone in every Lakers fan. Coach Darvin Ham needs no introduction. Notably, the superstar spoke about him as well in the series. Now, the team has moved away from Ham’s coaching style and is all set to start a new season with JJ Redick. We’ve already witnessed glimpses of it in the preseason.

Finally, a fan, who seemed concerned about the divided comment section, took the noble duty to inform the rest of the fans. They wrote, “For those who doesn’t know why he is angry. Ohio state lost by 1 to Oregon. Importantly, it’s just another episode in the life of a LeBron James fan. And, we make sure to bring you the fun episodes in our upcoming coverage.
