Rihanna’s Cheering For LeBron Made Warriors Owner So Mad He Had To Move Seats During Game 1 Of NBA Finals

Rihanna’s cheered for LeBron James during Game 1 of the NBA Finals Thursday while she sat in upgraded seats from Joe Lacob, and it made the Golden State Warriors owner so upset that he moved a few seats away from the pop star. Lacob revealed in a video posted to YouTube that Rihanna had bought a courtside seat to the game, but it wasn’t very close to center court.

“She bought seats, down, down, paid a lot of money for them. And, she can root for whoever she wants, right?” Lacob said.

Lacob explains that he upgraded Rihanna’s seats to be nice, “I took my two kids, who like to go to a lot of games and I booted them down to the end of the court, and seated her next to me. Seat her next to the owner, it’s a nice thing to do,” Lacob said.

But, Rihanna’s rooting was enough to distract Lacob. “She was rooting for LeBron the whole game, and finally I got irritated and I said (whispering), ‘I am the owner of the Warriors,’” Lacob said, adding “Finally, I just said, ‘that’s it,’ and I moved a few seats away.”

Just another reason the “tattooed thug League” is a waste of time, money and effort. Just my two cents.

I’m shocked that telling a fan of the other team to tone it down didn’t work.

I don’t think Lacob has a tattoo, but he is a major loser.

Watched the golf tournament on tv today, and thought about how different than ghettoball in so many ways...

Referring to players, most of whom have tattoos and have a "few" kids out of wedlock.

Who?

On all counts.

Yeah, like golf is not a sport, among other things . . . .

[nickcarraway]

A lot of the owners are worse. Not to mention commissioners.

You thought that this should be posted on FreeRepublic why, exactly?

[Ann Archy]

What an ASS!! Some tramp star is more important than his kids!!!

[Roman_War_Criminal]

You’re two cents are worth millions in wisdom actually.

I hate the NBA....

Lacob boots his kids to seats away from him because being seen sitting next to Rihanna instead was the nice thing to do. Rihanna accepting the seat then cheering for the opponent is amazing.

They all deserve each other. JMHO

Elites behaving badly towards each other?

Har, I took part of this pic from Drudge and had to comment that the owner of that hand has never done a lick of hard work with it in his life.
