T.J. Simers of the Los Angeles Times is no stranger to giving coaches and players a hard time when they deserve it, and tonight he went in on Lakers coach Mike D’Antoni. Following the Lakers loss to the Cavaliers in Cleveland, D’Antoni was getting grilled by T.J. Simers about the lack of defense in the game and D’Antoni snapped at the end saying “you’re starting to piss me off.” TWC SportsNet cut to commercial just after it happened.
The Cleveland Cavaliers won 100-94 over the Los Angeles Lakers and Kyrie Irving tossed in 28 points in his first game following missing 11 games with a broken finger. The Lakers dropped to 9-13 on the season.
