While in the past most fans have dismissed LeBron James in the ‘GOAT’ argument, after breaking many records he’s making a case for himself now. But the immense popularity that comes with it always leaves one open to criticism. The fans have always disliked the way LeBron complains, on or off the court. Now, superstar LeBron James is once again trolled by the fans for his comments on Twitter.
In his recent Tweet, LeBron said that playing a game before noon should be outlawed and that an 8:00 AM game is insane. This garnered a lot of troll comments from the fans. And LeBron’s tweet actually puzzled most fans.
You make millions of dollars to play basketball. I bet MJ woudnt be complaining about playing at 8am. Do better

LeBron James’ season
LeBron James and the LA Lakers not making the playoffs shocked a lot of fans. Expectations were high after they gained Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony. While Carmelo Anthony wasn’t expected to do a lot, the fans expected Russell Westbrook to hit the ground running. But he struggled through most part of the season.
Also, Anthony Davis’ long injury layoffs hurt the Lakers a lot. He was only available for 40 games this season. In the last season, he was only available for 36 games.
