"You sharted your pants": LeBron James gets heckled by young Magic fan who calls him out for 'flopping'

Los Angeles Lakers v Orlando Magic
A young Magic fan heckled LeBron James

NBA players aren't immune to hecklers, which includes LeBron James, one of the most decorated stars in the history of the league. In a recent game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Orlando Magic, a kid watching courtside tried to have a go at James.

Players usually ignore hecklers or sometimes get them ejected if they go over the line. In the past game where the Lakers visited Orlando, a kid decided it would be fun to talk trash to the four-time champion. He went ahead and everything he said to James was recorded on camera.

"Stop flopping," the kid yelled at LeBron James twice (via Daily Loud).
"You look like you sharted your pants," he continued.

The kid's words for the Lakers legend even got him a few chuckles from the spectators nearby. But James remained unfazed and focused on playing the game.

Los Angeles ended up losing to the Magic that night, 120-101, but James had a decent game. He registered 24 points, nine rebounds, and five assists. Anthony Davis helped him out big time with 28 points and 13 rebounds.

LeBron James and Lakers unhappy with officiating in game against Miami Heat

The Lakers weren't able to get a win in Florida after losing to the Orlando Magic and the Miami Heat. They were able to accept their loss well against Orlando, but things changed after their game against Miami.

After their 108-107 loss to the Heat, head coach Darvin Ham and LeBron James aired their frustrations about not getting the proper calls.

“I think, the perspective of inconsistency. And even when I got hit with my technical foul, normally. I’ve been around this league a long time, man. You have a crew chief, supposed to, ya know, along with his counterparts, have the game under control,” Ham said (via Los Angeles Times).
“And all I want is an explanation sometimes. To not get that for the rest of the game once I got my technical, ya know, Miami plays a physical brand of basketball, but we’re not complaining about how physical they are. We just want balance and consistency, that’s it," he added.

LeBron James doubled down on his coach's comments regarding the officiating, saying:

"I don’t know. The explanations of what they’re telling me are not consistent with what’s actually happening on the floor. When I went for the dunk attempt against Thomas Bryant he clearly like, arm straight across my face. I asked them the explanation and one of the refs said he was straight up, hands straight in the air. Two of the other refs said they was blocked, they didn’t see it. One of my transition plays, I was going in transition, I got fouled, nobody saw it."

The league recently released the L2M or Last Two Minute report regarding last night's game between the Lakers and Heat. According to it, all the calls were correct.
