The play was then reviewed, and it appeared to show LeBron's foot was, in fact, behind the three-point line but the officials remained unchanged, which understandably set James off. The Timberwolves went on to win the game 108-106. 

After the game, LeBron didn't hold back, talking with reporters, he said, "It’s obviously a 3. My foot is behind the line. I mean, you can see the space between the front of my foot and the 3-point line.

You can clearly see a white, the wood on the floor, there’s a space in between the front of my foot and the 3-point line. So, you know, Stevie Wonder can see that, champ." He continued, "It’s super frustrating in the sense of what the hell we got a replay for? 

What do we have replay for if even the replay gets it wrong? It’s like, who’s the part of the replay center? Like, do we got robots in there that's making the Teslas? What’s going on? If you don’t see that, that is clear, that is clear." Lebron James controversial call LeBron also made his frustrations known on social media after the game, with a screenshot of his foot seemingly behind the line with the caption, "Sooooooooooooooo!!!!! WTF. Helluva Happy Bday gift to me."
