The Pain On LeBron James' Face After Losing The First Finals Game Has Become A Very Versatile Meme

Posted Jun 3, 2018
On Thursday, the Cleveland Cavaliers lost the first NBA Finals game to the Golden State Warriors after a critical play went a little weird. The embarrassing play had teammate LeBron James reacting viscerally to J.R. Smith. Without fully blaming the L on Cavs' J.R. Smith, Smith decided to dribble the ball out with 4.7 seconds left in the game and the two teams were tied 107–107. (BuzzFeed)
