LeBron James was not happy with a pair of fans sitting courtside in the Los Angeles Lakers' contest against the Indiana Pacers.

King James literally pulled a referee over to point out some fans, who were presumably heckling the Lakers' star during an intense moment in overtime. Both fans were ejected from the arena.

LeBron James got the last laugh, turning into an overtime assassin for the purple and gold for a much-needed Lakers win. His patented left-wing daggers were right on the money against the Pacers on Wednesday night.

He poured in a vintage performance with 39 points, five rebounds, and six assists for the Lakers on a night Anthony Davis was sidelined due to an illness.
