Twitter was not impressed by LeBron James, or ‘LeSnitch’ as he’s now affectionately known, for having two fans ejected from the game for heckling him.
LeBron was truly rattled by two members of the crowd during Wednesday night’s Lakers-Pacers game in Indiana, and he asked the referee to have them removed from the building.

One of the hecklers called the superstar a crybaby as she left.
It wasn’t long before LeSnitch trended on Twitter, and some of the tweets were fantastic.

This is why I’ve alway said that Lebron James may be a great player, but he is a pussy and not even close to being on the same level as Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant. They would’ve dropped 60 on their opponent and told the fans themselves to shut the fuck up #LeSnitch

LeBron has now revealed why he had them removed. It was “obscene gestures and words” from the guy that caused him to have them removed from the game in overtime.
James told reporters:
“When obscene gestures and language come into it, (it) can’t be tolerated. There’s a difference from cheering for your team and not wanting the other team to win and things I would never say to a fan and they shouldn’t say to me.”
He had a point then.
