The four-time NBA champion and twenty-time All-Star, LeBron James, was clear in his statement while expressing his opinions regarding officiating during the Lakers loss against the Denver Nuggets. The former lost the second game of Playoffs Round 1, and they had lost the first game as well.
The Lakers superstar was referencing one of the plays when All-Star guard D’Angelo Russell was hit in the face by Michael Porter Jr. and no call was made as referee Scott Foster overturned the call.
LeBron James was not happy with the MPJ foul on DLo being overturned despite him being hit in the face:
"I don't understand what's going on in the replay center, to be honest. What f— do we have a replay center for? It makes no sense to me… What are we doing?"

"I don't understand what's going on in the replay center, to be honest… What the fuck do we have a replay center… Makes no sense to me. It bothers me."

LeBron mentioned during the post-game press conference, “I don’t understand what’s going on in the replay center, to be honest. What f— do we have a replay center for? It makes no sense to me… What are we doing?”
LeBron in his remarks shared that the officials were short on calling the foul which was made against Russell and also mentioned the 76ers and Knicks game as well. He further stated that these shortcomings in the officiating “bothers” him.
