The Lakers‘ loss to the Celtics on Saturday night came with controversy, as referees appeared to miss a foul by Jayson Tatum on LeBron James in a tie game as time expired in regulation. Boston would win in overtime, while Los Angeles was left to wonder why James didn’t get a chance to win the game at the free throw line.
Multiple Lakers publicly questioned the officiating after the game. James, specifically, openly wondered why he isn’t getting the calls other superstars seem to receive.
“I don’t get it,” James said.
