Fan trolls LeBron James with “Warriors” chant at LeBron Jr.’s AAU game
By Tim Ryan
Whether it’s the fans or fellow NBA players, it certainly seems like it’s impossible for LeBron James to escape the mockery lately.
If it wasn’t enough that LeBron James was being blatantly mocked and laughed at by Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving — his own freakin’ teammate! — he’s also had the misfortune of even hearing some heckling at his son’s AAU tournament.
Immediately following a recent loss by LeBron Jr. and the North Coast Blue Chips, a young fan began serenading team James with Golden State’s signature “Warrrrriors, Warrrrriors” chant.
It didn’t last long though, because — as you can see from the video — it quickly caught LeBron’s attention as he kinda stopped what he was doing and started making his way toward the mockery.
And then the fan quickly shut up. Wise move.
"Watch more"
Listen, if ‘Bron can’t take some lighthearted joking from a fan who was probably no older than 11, then some intense thoughts (like the Cavs coming apart at the seams) must be swirling around inside that awesomely balding head.
Then again, his son doesn’t need that crap so I suppose I understand.
Nonetheless, if you weren’t yet convinced that the Warriors absolutely own LeBron’s soul right now, all you needed was this brief footage to know he’s either ready to snap at any given moment or he’s about to average 37 points, 18 rebounds, and 14 assists this coming season.
To be honest, it’s probably both.
Now, for the aforementioned mockery that came courtesy of Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving, who could not stop laughing his ass off.
Say what you want about the pettiness here and hate it all you want if that’s what you choose, but no one can deny Steph’s dead-on impression of LeBron and his compilation of ridiculous workout video selfies.

The world now anxiously, and quite pathetically, awaits LeBron’s next move on Twitter, Instagram or Snapchat because the NBA and it’s Oscar-worthy offseason drama has suddenly become year-round entertainment.

On a side note, I eagerly await for a ballsy Starbucks barista to simply write “L” on LeBron’s cup and in turn cause a wild melee. Should get us through the summer.
Sad!
