Audio has surfaced of the argument between Houston Rockets coach Ime Udoka and Lakers star LeBron James that got Ime ejected from Saturday’s game against the Lakers.
NBA fans speculated that Ime called LeBron a big cry baby because he’s always whining to the refs.
It turned out to be worse than that.
Twitter/X user @legendz_nba uploaded the audio that shows Ime called LeBron the b-word.
“Stop crying like a b*tch, man,” Ime said.
LeBron responded, “We’re all grown men, that b*tch word ain’t cool. Don’t use that word so loosely.”
“Don’t use it so loosely,” LeBron repeated, while the ref hovered nearby eavesdropping.
“What are you gonna do about what I said? Walking over here acting like you’re gonna do something,” Ime told LeBron, before adding “Soft a*s boy.”
That’s when the whistle came out and the ref assessed a technical foul on LeBron and ejected Ime.
Fans argued that Ime was ejected for basically telling the truth about the NBA’s golden boy. LeBron has ruined the game with his constant complaining.
LeBron is part of the reason why the fans stopped watching — and why the NBA created the spectacularly dumb in-season tournament hoping to draw fans back.
