Mario Chalmers vs LeBron James

Mario Chalmers heard LeBron James complaining one too many times back in 2013 and told him, "Stop playing like a b*tch." That statement is disrespectful to the highest degree, and LeBron's reaction supports this claim.

Yes, a random regular season game in December got that Heat team charged up. This is an organization that feeds off controversy.
