Former Knick says LeBron James needs to 'check emotions' and 'move on' after reaction to missed foul call

A former New York Knicks player has given his two cents on LeBron James' reaction to a missed foul call that pushed a recent Laker game into overtime.

LeBron James was clearly not happy Saturday with a missed foul call on his layup that could have given his Los Angeles Lakers a 107-105 lead with just a couple of seconds to go.

James was in disbelief that the refs did not call a foul on Jayson Tatum, and it continued on Twitter after the game.

He was assessed a technical foul, and the Boston Celtics took home a 125-121 win.

James has gotten some criticism about his reaction, with many believing it was over the top. A former New York Knick chimed in on Instagram.

Charles Smith, a former All-Rookie first teamer and Big East Player of the Year, said James should just move on to the next game.

The Lakers sit in 13th place in the Western Conference with a 23-28 record. They started out 2-12 on the season, and their entire campaign has been filled with hot and cold streaks.

James is averaging 30.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 7.0 assists this year. Since turning 38 on Dec. 30, he's dropped 35.2 points per contest along with 9.4 boards and 8.1 assists.
