NBA star LeBron James criticized officials for awarding him a two-point shot instead of a three-pointer during a game between the L.A. Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

James vehemently argued that his foot was behind the line, indicating a three-pointer.

He expressed frustration with the replay officials and questioned the purpose of the NBA’s replay rule. (Trending: Transgender Actor ‘Purposefully Misgendered’ By Airline Employee)

“It’s obviously a 3,” said LeBron James.

“My foot is behind the line. I mean, you can see the space between the front of my foot and the 3-point line. You can clearly see a white the wood on the floor, there’s a space in between the front of my foot and the 3-point line. So, you know, Stevie Wonder can see that, champ,” he continued.

“They said it was out of their hands,” said James.

“The Secaucus, whatever, over there in the replay center or whatever, somebody over there eating a ham sandwich, or somebody made the call,” he explained.

“It’s super frustrating in the sense of what the hell we got a replay for?” asked the star.

“What do we have replay for if even the replay gets it wrong? It’s like, who’s the part of the replay center? Like, do we got robots in there that’s making the Teslas? What’s going on? If you don’t see that, that is clear, that is clear,” he continued.

Despite his protests, the call was upheld due to insufficient evidence to overturn it.

NBA Official Tony Brothers said, “The play was ruled a 2-point field goal on the floor during live play.”

“After video review, there wasn’t clear and conclusive evidence to overturn it from a 2 to a 3, and that’s why it stood as a 2-point field goal,” added the referee.
