LeBron James' Yells At His Mother During Celtics Game (VIDEO)

LeBron James gave it to his mother Monday night during a game against the Boston Celtics. It appears he told her to "Sit yo *$*% down." Watch the video below - James' mother jumps up and tries to get between her son and a bunch of Boston Celtics when they fall into the crowd. Underneath the video is a longer description of what happened from USA Today.

Ms. James came roaring into the action in the second quarter when her son was wrapped up on a breakaway dunk attempt by Paul Pierce.

Kevin Garnett tried to calm her down, but it was LeBron who got the job done.

"I told her to sit down, in some language I shouldn't have used," James said. "Thank God today wasn't Mother's Day. All I could think about is her. ... I know my mother. It's fine, we're good."

A " bunch of thugs who bounce a ball for a living.."?

Well, their forefathers were tied and thrown on a ship and ferried from Africa...they were treated as animals, denied all the opportunities to succeed. Bouncing ball is the only option their sons have.Thats how they feed and support their families.Lucky you.You probably inherited some millions from your grand parents; probably staying in a big house using your expensive laptop to hurl insult at people who dont behave or earn a living as you do...and so you call them a bunch of thugs who bounce a ball for a living...

It's a basketball game, get a life will you. Lebron James did what nearly anyone would have or should have done. He told a fan to sit down. Fans even when they are mothers don't belong in the melee of NBA basketball. Lebron James played a great game on Monday night. It was one for the books.

[whatevertoo]

Tell them to sit down is one thing when it is your mother there is a right way to do it and a wrong way to do it. That was the wrong way.

Spoken like a true coward.

[badnfluence]

Take your bigotry elsewhere, quisling. I think you'd fit in nicely on the Free Republic forums.

[Mutineer]

Obviously you do. Feeling a little envious?

[robXdion]

I hope he gave her a really good Mother's Day gift.....

Definitely worse than Bill Clinton telling a heckler to be quiet so he could answer her rude interruption.

[mikebythesun]

I'm sure he's very sorry for what he said. It was in the heat of the moment.

The expressions from Garnett & Pierce were pretty funny. Playing in a tight playoff game, rolling into the crowd. Hey, that's your Mom!

I'm a big Celtics fan, but you can't deny what an amazing player LeBron is, and he's only 23.

LeBron was right but he used the wrong language. He needs to apologize to his fans. Even though he was right in his intention, he was wrong in his approach and for that his mother needed to kick his behind right there in front of his fans and all the youth who are watching from all over the world.

[gevan]

"H" is for "HaHa", right?

[Testtubebaby]

Screw his fans; he needs to be on his knees begging for forgiveness from his MOM!

[sunzen]

She was protecting her Billion dollar baby...can you blame her? Lebron had displaced aggression like a mad dog. Have respect for your mom!

[08timefortruth]

lol.......just goes to show that no matter how old or how big you get your mom will always try to protect you.......

[dora rice]

he was right. What business is it of her to mix into a brawl or anything else about the game.
Good work Brown.

[lowry99]

Garnett is total class, though. He'll probs send flowers.

[CindyKay]

LOL! He's Real Lucky She Didn't Kick His A** Right There In Front Of All His Fans & Teammates !

[barackingthevote247]

no she needed to sit her ass down... its not like this was his first game ever as a pro and they were being unnecessarily rough with him..... he was RIGHT

[whatevertoo]

I can definitely tell from reading these post their is a big cultural difference in how people are raise, In the black culture what he did is totally disrespectful under any circumstances and unacceptable, and not tolerated.

[ptarantino]

actually a good move by LeBron to chill the situation out~
