The Cleveland Cavaliers saw their perfect postseason ruined by a game-winner from Avery Bradley on Sunday night that rattled around the rim 47 times before falling through and keeping Boston alive in a series that looked all but finished. Naturally, LeBron James was feeling a little testy after the game, and he let his emotions get the better of him at the post-game presser when he snapped at a reporter for asking about his sub-par performance.

Now, it turns out there might’ve been another reason LeBron was feeling a little on edge. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst says he got into it with a fan after the game who eventually had to be escorted from the premises.

The frustration is perfectly warranted. The Cavs blew a 21-point lead and a chance to close out the series in Game 4 on Tuesday. They’re now forced to go back to Boston for Game 5 on Thursday instead of enjoying some much needed R&R before, presumably, their third consecutive Finals showdown with the Golden State Warriors.

For the Celtics, it was a morale-boosting win, especially without Isaiah Thomas out of the mix, but ultimately they’re just prolonging the inevitable. An angry LeBron James isn’t going to be fun to deal with for the next couple of games.
