The Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James once again saw their season come to a premature end with a disappointing first-round playoff exit. While James has managed to move past the overall setback, a foul review involving Anthony Edwards from Game 4 of their series against the Minnesota Timberwolves continues to trouble the veteran star.
In a recent episode of the Mind The Game podcast with Steve Nash, LeBron opened up about the controversial moment. He harshly criticized the use of an unusual camera angle during the review process.
“I know this is kind of off topic, but there was a piece of camerawork in the postseason of our game in Minnesota that I have never seen in my f***ing life. I’ve never seen that computer work in my life,” James said.

The controversy occurred during Game 4 when a foul involving Edwards was initially not called on LeBron. After the Timberwolves challenged the non-call, the officiating crew reviewed it. That’s when things got strange. The officials utilized a never-before-seen camera angle to evaluate the play.
This unique perspective appeared to significantly influence the referees’ decision. The outcome of the review wasn’t favorable for the Lakers. The foul was ultimately called against them. The Lakers went on to lose 113-116. The Wolves then eliminated the Lakers from the playoffs.
