NBA – After his ejection against LeBron, Ime Udoka’s tackle for the Lakers: “To be…

Ime Udoka et LeBron James

Now coach of the Rockets after many stories, Ime Udoka was talked about again this Saturday… and still not for good reasons. The coach was ejected after a dialogue with LeBron James, but he still had things to say at a press conference.

Just with the presence of Dillon Brooks in the opposing camp, we knew that the meetings between the Lakers and the Rockets were going to be difficult. But they took another turn this Saturday evening after an altercation between LeBron James and… Ime Udoka, the Houston coach. We don’t know exactly what the two men said, but it was quite tense.

Note that James and Udoka took a technique at the time, but the coach already had one before, which explains his ejection. Did LeBron try to trick him? Most likely and it worked. Udoka was also bitter at the press conference, the proof with his direct tackle for the Lakers.

Ime Udoka pays for the Lakers

In front of journalists, the coach did not hesitate to question the mentality of the Angelinos. Maybe he was a little bitter after his punishment:

Ime Udoka: “Being manhandled by a team that is not known for its physical side or attacking others is not a good sign. »

It’s quite rare to see a coach tackle another team like this, especially since Darvin Ham and company didn’t ask for anything. In any case, this adds fuel to the fire between the two franchises, to the point where fans can’t wait to see the Rockets again. For the moment, the supporters have mainly made a series of tackles against Udoka. The latter is not very popular in Los Angeles after that.

Lmao this guy is bitter…

We still beat you

Ime Udoka doesn’t understand how his team could have lost to the Lakers. Nice for the Californian franchise, with LeBron James who will surely catch wind of such a statement. The reunion will be salty.
