Watch: LeBron James Makes Bold Statement About Teammates After Loss To Bucks

The Los Angeles Lakers were about to win the game against the Milwaukee Bucks, but they lost that chance in the second half. The Bucks were not ready to give up on the game, and actually took advantage of turnovers and the mistakes their opponents made. 131-120 was the last thing they needed at this point of the season.

The final 10 seconds were running down, and LeBron James was too frustrated to wait for the final buzzer. He left the court. LeBron was just irritated and he did not even want to discuss the loss.

Now we have this video showing him leave the game before time run out. It is more than obvious that he is not happy with the way his teammates handled the game. Is head coach Luke Walton the one to be blamed for the loss?

“We had our chances,” James said. “We had our chances, but we broke down individually down the stretch defensively. Too many breakdowns, one-on-one breakdowns, and Bled he brought ’em home.

“It’s win or lose, that’s it. Obviously you want to build, but it’s win or lose in that particular moment. I’m a guy who lives in the present. So we have to be great tomorrow against Phoenix. We can’t say, ‘OK, we were great for 3 1/2 quarters against Milwaukee.’… We have to be great against Phoenix and hit the restart button.”

Did LeBron just criticize his teammates?

He praised Bucks’ role players, and some said this was some sort of criticism for his teammates. He said, “They’re dual threats. They shoot the ball and drive at a high level, at a high clip, that’s part of the reason that they’re so good. Everybody tends to talk about Giannis so much, but it’s the supporting cast that he has, those guys go out and do their job every single night.”
