The game between the Atlanta Hawks and the Los Angeles Lakers was stopped briefly last night after LeBron James confronted some Hawks fans who were heckling him.
LeBron says the incident was really no big deal, that it was "a back-and-forth between two grown men" when someone else he described as a 'Courtside Karen' jumped into it.
