Despite a review of the play, the decision was reversed, leaving LeBron perplexed. In his social media post, he emphasized the frustration of witnessing a good game end with such a contentious call and hinted at his consistent vocal reactions during such instances.
While the play in question did indeed appear to be a foul, it’s important to note that the Celtics had additional challenges contributing to their loss. Tyrese Haliburton’s absence in the first half due to injury added another layer of difficulty for Boston.
