'We got cheated': Laker's fume over referee decision in the overtime loss to Celtics

LeBron James, who was at the center of the controversy, expressed frustration with the call after the game. "We got cheated," James said. "Simple as that. They missed a big one."
James was driving to the basket in the closing seconds of the game when he was met with heavy contact from a Celtics defender. Despite the apparent foul, no call was made, and the Lakers were forced to settle for a jump shot that missed the mark.
The Lakers head coach, Frank Vogel, also weighed in on the missed call, stating that it was a "tough one" to swallow. "We played our hearts out and fought until the end, but it's just frustrating when the game is decided like that," Vogel said.
