NBA fans are trolling LeBron James after the hooper came out to voice his frustration on Bill Belichick being snubbed as a first-ballot Hall of Famer. It was recently reported that the former Pats coach did not receive the 40 of 50 votes required for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Belichick was visibly disappointed and frustrated with the snub and many athletes have been taking to social media to express their anger. While many fans do agree with King James’ tweet, others are trolling him.
“Man there’s no way I read that right! Right? Ain’t no WAY Bill Belichick ain’t 1st Ballot HOF! That’s IMPOSSIBLE, EGREGIOUS, and quite frankly DISRESPECTFUL!” LeBron James tweeted.

“Bro you’re not even first ballot if you retire today (crying emoji)” one fan joked.
“You never even read your books anyways Remember you were reading the Godfather when you were playing the Celtics in the playoffs and they asked you a question about it and you didn’t even know anything about it. #” one fan mocked James.
“King of the Court? More like King of the Dive. Your words on Belichick carry about as much weight as your flops do gravity…zero. Stay in your lane, poser. (swimming emoji, dash emoji) LeFlop,” another fan trolled.
NBA Fans Mock HOF For Snubbing Bill Belichick
Meanwhile, many NBA fans agree with LeBron James’ tweet in calling out the HOF for snubbing Bill Belichick. A large percentage of the fans felt that the HOF lost its credibility and value that they built over the years.

“It’s not about ‘Football’, it’s about ‘Feelings.’ 50 writers just decided that Spygate matters more than 6 Super Bowls. They didn’t vote on his resume, they voted on their personal grudges. The Hall of Fame just lost more credibility than Belichick did.” One fan explained.
“With 1 Bad Decision the Hall of Fame has forever tarnished they’re reputation and credibility. Smh the NFL Hall of Fame can never be trusted the same again after this move (face palming emoji x3)” another fan echoed.
“If Bill Belichick isn’t a first-ballot Hall of Famer, then the Hall itself has officially lost credibility. You don’t rewrite the sport for 20+ years and wait in line like a role player.” one more fan added.
At the same time, there were numerous fans who felt that Bill Belichick definitely did not deserve to be a first ballot HOFer because he cheated. Others felt that the coach did not deserve the honor at all since it was Tom Brady who did all the work.
