Lakers star LeBron James roasted by Marcin Gortat over 'crying' to referees

On Monday evening, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers saw their 2023-24 season officially come to an unceremonious conclusion with a 108-106 loss to the Denver Nuggets in Game 5 of the first round series between the two teams, marking the second straight postseason that the Nuggets had sent the Lakers to Cancun. James played very well for large portions of this series, as did costar Anthony Davis, who at times looked like the best player on the floor, but ultimately it was the Lakers' supporting cast–particularly Rui Hachimura and D'Angelo Russell–who let them down, not closely resembling their regular season selves at times vs Denver.
