LeBron James Incited Violence and Dropped ?F-Bombs? in Furious Display in 2021 After 20-Year-Old Raptors Star Destroyed the Lakers

LeBron James has a rich history with the Toronto Raptors. While still donning the Cleveland Cavaliers colors, ‘The King’ was arguably their kryptonite. Notably, the 2019 NBA champions failed to get past James in the playoffs year after year. The 18-time All-Star’s dominance went so far that fans and pundits dubbed the city as ‘LeBronto’. However, a lot has changed over the years with James’ move to the Los Angeles Lakers. Notably, last season was a ride from hell for the 37-year-old who put up one of his best offensive seasons. With his teammates not doing due diligence, the ‘Akron Hammer’ got furious, and a Raptors rookie felt the end of it.

The Lakers were in an awfully similar spot last season. The franchise was battling all year long to secure a spot in the play-in tournament. Before facing off against the Canadian side, they were nine games under the .500 metric. Each win would be precious. Likewise, LeBron James came ready to put on a show once again against his favorite rivals. But it seems his teammates didn’t have the same determination to be victorious.

Furious with their subpar efforts, he dropped ‘f-bombs’ on his teammates during one possession. Moreover, later in the game, his blood boiled enough to spike the ball into rookie?Scottie Barnes in an attempt to keep possession.

LeBron James was furious with his Lakers’ side

Despite dealing with lingering knee soreness, LeBron James took the court for the Showtime Lakers. In the absence of Anthony Davis, the four-time MVP was left to fend off the hot Toronto Raptors all alone. Moreover, Russell Westbrook was in midst of one of his worst regular seasons. With all the shortcomings, it wasn’t a surprise when Toronto rocketed its way to a dominating first half. However, James didn’t seem concerned with the score. In fact, it was the efforts of the fellow purple and gold jerseys that angered James to slam the ball repeatedly on the floor.

He was unhappy with his players’ lousy body language and served them ‘f-bombs’ to wake up. Later in the game, as the matchup slipped away, the 18-time All-NBA selection star took it out on Barnes while fighting for the rebound. The 37-year-old cocked the ball over his head and slammed it toward the 20-year-old’s face who was already on the floor. After the game, the Rookie of The Year even expressed his surprise over the incident.

The night ended in a Raptors 114-103 win over the 2020 NBA champion. The knee soreness only restricted LeBron James to score 30 points in 40 minutes. It marked the Lakers’ 39th loss of the 2021-22 season. James would continue to play at an All-NBA level averaging 30.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 6.2 assists in the dissatisfactory campaign.
