LeBron James is not happy with the NBA officiating and even mentioned the Sixers-Knicks following the Lakers' loss to the Nuggets.
"I don't understand what's going on in the replay center to be honest...D-Lo clearly gets hit in the face on a drive," James said post game following the Lakers' two-point Game 2 loss at the Denver Nuggets. "What the f**k do we have a replay center...It doesn't make sense to me. It makes no sense to me. It bothers me. I'm sorry I didn't answer your question, but that s**t.
"And then I just saw what happened with Sixers-Knick game too. I'm like...what are we doing?"
D'Angelo Russell was hit in the face in the third quarter and the foul was overturned after a challenge. The Lakers ended up losing the game by two points on a Jamal Murray buzzer beater.
The Sixers, up five points with about 30 seconds to go, found a way to lose their Game 2 at Madison Square Garden against the Knicks.
Philadelphia is filing a grievance with the NBA in regards to the officiating late in the game as head coach Nick Nurse says he was ignored by the refs when trying to call a timeout and Tyrese Maxey's jersey appears to be held by Jalen Brunson.
