The game against the Pelicans was not just any loss for the Lakers, it was an embarrassing defeat in front of the home crowd. Towards the end of the game three Lakers, namely LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and Trevor Ariza, were recorded arguing with the fans.

It turns out the fan that the four-time NBA champion had an exchange with was telling Jame how to play basketball, which did not sit well with the superstar.

“If you follow my career, I will get into it with a fan so that wasn’t nothing out of the ordinary for me,” James said after the Dallas game. “No matter if it’s a home crowd or crowd that’s not or someone on the opposing side.

“If you’re cheering or booing it’s fine but this guy was literally trying to tell me how to play basketball so that’s why you got the response you see me respond to. That was all that was. Can’t tell me how to play basketball. Not him, not that guy. So that was my response.”
