<p>LeBron James, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/nba">NBA</a> star and part owner of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/baseball">Boston Red Sox</a>, had some harsh words for Boston Celtics fans on a recent podcast as the Los Angeles Laker criticized them for allegedly being &#8220;racist as f***&#8221; — despite previously saying that he had never experienced racism in the Massachusetts city.</p>
<p>James made the comments on the most recent episode of his talk show &#8220;The Shop.&#8221; When asked where he hated playing, James did not hesitate to name Boston as the toughest place to play.</p>
<p>Maverick Carter — a guest on the show and fellow Red Sox co-owner — <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/le-bron-james-red-sox-co-owner-says-he-hates-celtics-fans-because-they-racist-as-f-005513844.html">asked</a> James, &#8220;In basketball, there are fans that can literally take the game from you? You can feel like, &#8216;The fans is not going to let us win this one tonight?&#8217; What place?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I mean, Boston,&#8221; James responded.</p>
<p>Co-creator of the show Paul Rivera asked, &#8220;Why do you hate Boston?&#8221; The sure-fire NBA Hall of Famer shot back, &#8220;Because they racist as f***.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They will say anything and it&#8217;s fine. It&#8217;s my life,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I&#8217;ve been dealing with it my whole life. I don&#8217;t mind it. I hear it. If I hear somebody like close by, I&#8217;ll check them real quick. I move on to the game. &#8230; They might throw something on you. I got a beer thrown on me leaving the game.&#8221;</p>

<p>In 2021, both Carter and James <a href="https://www.wgbh.org/news/local-news/2021/04/30/lebron-james-now-owns-part-of-the-red-sox-what-does-that-mean-for-sports">invested</a> in the Fenway Sports Group which owns the Red Sox, Fenway Park, Liverpool Football Club, and the New England Sports Network (NESN).</p>
<p>“Well first of all, it’s great to be with such a great group with FSG,&#8221; James told the press after the deal was announced. &#8220;They’ve done so many great things over the years, and just that collective group of people — they’re just amazing to be partners with.”</p>
<p>“I think for me and for my partner Maverick, to be the first two Black men to be a part of that ownership group in the history of that franchise, I think it’s pretty damn cool,&#8221; James added.</p>
<p>The three-time NBA Finals champion was blasted on Twitter for his remarks.</p>
<p>Gerry Callahan, Boston radio legend and host of &#8220;The Gerry Callahan Show&#8221; podcast, tweeted, &#8220;Of course, he gives no examples, not even made up ones. Question is, have the Red Sox owners apologized to this a**hole yet?&#8221;</p>

<p>OutKick writer Bobby Burack tweeted, &#8220;LeBron James is the biggest fraud on the internet,&#8221; while making note of his stake in the BoSox.</p>

<p>In May of 2017, James also <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2017/05/04/lebron-boston-racism-adam-jones/">told</a> the media that he had never personally been affected by racism in Boston.</p>
<p>His comments came in support of Baltimore Orioles centerfielder Adam Jones, who claimed that somebody called him the n-word from the stands of Fenway Park and threw peanuts at him during a game in Boston. Jones received a standing ovation from the Fenway crowd during his first at-bat the next day after the reported incident.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve been to Boston. I&#8217;ve played in Boston a lot I just try to have tunnel vision when I play I don&#8217;t &#8230; I can&#8217;t recall me ever hearing something that was racism towards me,&#8221; James <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkhGSjPy0R8&amp;t=10s">told</a> the media. &#8220;But I think it was great that the other guys spoke up for him not even on his own team. I think the guys from the Red Sox spoke up for Adam Jones saying like, &#8216;Hey fans, we need you guys to, you know, this is a situation where you guys need to have a standing ovation. Please do that because it&#8217;s not it&#8217;s not great for sport &#8230; it&#8217;s not great for society.&#8221;</p>
<p>A video of the standing ovation for Jones can be seen here:</p>

<p>James has <a href="https://www.celticsblog.com/2020/7/7/21307828/lebron-james-career-as-told-through-the-eyes-of-the-boston-celtics">an all-time series record</a> of 5 &#8211; 2 against the Celtics in the playoffs for the Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat — both teams in the Eastern Conference. Now as a Laker, the only time he will face the Celtics again in the postseason will be if both teams make it to the NBA Finals.</p>
