First match of Lebron James at home.
Then the match followed.
Several players ended up fighting when the Lakers lost 115-124 against the Houston Rockets last night.
LeBron James left Cleveland Cavaliers after last season and signed for the Los Angeles Lakers.
But the superstar, making his 16th season in the NBA, has not had a fun start to his new club. Defeated in the first against Portland and tonight, the Lakers have taken 115-124 at home against the Houston Rockets.
But the snack was then used for something else.
"Come play basketball"
In the last quarter, there was turmoil. It all started with the Lakers, Brandon Ingram, who drove James Harden and the noise grew when the Lakers guard, Rajon Rondo, grabbed a left hand hook in the face of Chris Paul (who First spotted his hand in the face of the opponent).
The match was interrupted for ten minutes. Meanwhile, LeBron James let Chris Paul calm while Lakers players did the same with Ingram.
After the match, LeBron James meant that he did not see how the noise had started.
– I did not see anything and I did not say anything to the team after the match. The coach (Luke Walton) said what he needed to say, we will be stronger back tomorrow, said LeBron James according to USA Today.
"I just tried to calm the game, that's all, to play basketball," he continues.
"I tried to provoke"
His teammate Lance Stephenson was even more outspoken and condemned the event on the plane.
– Paul would not have put his hand on Rondo's face. You know what will happen if you hit someone in the face. It was as if the other team was trying to provoke us and we continued. Our boys have never gone between trying to fend off the players. We should have separated them, we must get better, catch our boys and stay calm. That's a lot that has provoked us.
The noise ended when Paul and Rondo were expelled. Even Ingram had to leave the plan after receiving a personal foul and two techniques. According to USA Today, the three stops are under threat.
The next game for the Lakers will take place at the home of the San Antonio Spurs on the night of Tuesday, Swedish time.
