Of course, Weezy’s social media post garnered a lot of reactions from fans.
“We got legends of the rap game even calling OKC and the refs unbelievable gg,” one person wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“Oklahoma City Thunder games got that ‘anything is a foul’ setting turned on,” a second user chimed in.
“If a team is good enough, they should win regardless of ‘bad calls.” Stop looking for conspiracy theories and focus on the poor gameplay,” a third user added.

However, it wasn’t just Lil Wayne that had a problem with the officiating on Thursday night. Lakers head coach JJ Redick also called out the referees, particularly when it comes to how their star, LeBron James, is officiated.
“Lebron has the worst whistle of any player I’ve ever seen,” Redick said to reporters after the game. “Here are smaller guys, they can be theatric, and then the bigger guys like Lebron, he gets clobbered, it’s not a new thing…. guy gets hit on the head more than I ever seen when he drives.”
In the end, the Thunder came out on top with a 125-107 win over the Lakers. The series will now shift to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Saturday night.
