For the Lakers star LeBron, the ending of the Superbowl LVII reminded him of the controversial end of the LA game vs. the Celtics

Not only the NBA referees have ruined the ending of essential games in the league, but now the NFL referees have ruined the sport's most crucial game of the year, according to LeBron James.

The Los Angeles Lakers superstar went to Phoenix to witness the live game that had the Kansas City Chiefs as the winners with a superb Patrick Mahomes, that has just won his second Super Bowl in his still-short career.

There was a controversial call for the NFL referees that, in the end, helped Mahomes and the Chiefs to win the game by 3 points with a final score of 38-35 in a close and thriller game. Unfortunately, the NFL referees made the wrong call for LeBron, just like what happened to him with the Lakers in the January game vs. the Boston Celtics.

LeBron took his Twitter to post his reaction to it, and of course, being who he is, it has gone viral: "Sorry, but I don't like that call! Not for the Super Bowl, man!" Then he continued with another post "His hand on his back did not affect his route! This game was too damn good for that call to dictate the outcome at the end. Damn! By the way, I have no horse in the race. Just my professional opinion."

According to LeBron, he just wanted to see a good and fair game with no favorites

In his Twitter post, LeBron makes it clear that he wasn't cheering for anyone in specific, as he is a football lover and just wanted the best to win. And unfortunately, this time, the NFL referees stained what was becoming one of the most excellent Superbowl games in a long time.
