Sitting courtside at a basketball game seems like an incredible experience. In addition to being right next to the game, you get to hear everything that happens on the court. If you’re a big hoops head, getting the chance to hear basketball players communicate with one another can be an enlightening experience.
Or you can sit courtside and get a ton of joy out of listening to basketball players trash talk one another. This seems like it would be endlessly entertaining and make the high cost of a ticket absolutely worth it. But sometimes, you can end up on the receiving end of some trash talk, as one Raptors fan learned during their Game 4 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
This fan didn’t just get crap from anyone, he heard some chirping from LeBron James. Apparently, the fan decided to wear dress shoes to a basketball game, which seems like a curious choice considering the venue. LeBron noticed and let him have it.

“You mad or nah?” LeBron asked the fan. “You should be mad about the shoes you picked today.”
Everyone seemed to get a laugh, because getting your chops busted by LeBron seems like it’d be fun. It also seemed like LeBron was in an especially good mood, which wasn’t a surprise – Cleveland won Game 4 en route to sweeping the Raptors in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. LeBron had 35 points, nine rebounds, and six assists in the 109-102 win.
