While LeBron James is getting praised in the basketball world for his performance with the NBA Finals, many throughout the NHL are not impressed with the Miami Heat superstar.

James, who briefly left Game 4 of the NBA Finals with a leg injury, was being criticized by several NHL players on Twitter on Tuesday night.

NHL players are known for their on-ice toughness whether it’s fighting or blocking shots, so it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that some NHL players were not suspicious of LeBron and his leg cramps during Game 4.

“Lebron James is embarrassing himself and the NBA or actually all athletes,” tweeted Ryan Potulny, a forward in the Washington Capitals system. Potulny’s comments were later deleted from his Twitter account.

Here is a complilation of tweets from NHL players about LeBron from Tuesday:
