Lil Wayne (c.) attends Game One of the NBA Finals, but seems to still harbor a grudge against the host Oklahoma City Thunder.
It takes a lot to make Li'l Wayne feel the love.
Just a courtside seat to the NBA finals, for instance, may not be enough.
The rapper and entrepreneur got a courtside seat for Game One is Tuesday night between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Miami Heat at Oklahoma City's Chesapeake Energy Arena.
THUNDER UP! DURANT, OKC TAKE GAME 1 FROM LEBRON AND HEAT
Then he complained about it, tweeting that the staff had "again" treated him "like s---."
He was presumably referring to the May 31 game at the same arena between the Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs.
He was denied entry that night because, the arena said, he didn't have a ticket. He said the real reason is that other ticket-holders didn't want him there.
As a result, he said, he's now hoping the Heat will blow Oklahoma City away - which hasn't happened yet, with Oklahoma City winning that first game.
Game Two is Thursday night back in Oklahoma City. Li'l Wayne did not announce whether he plans to risk further disrespect and return.
Since Twitter is limited to 140 characters, he also didn't specify exactly how the staff had mistreated him on Tuesday.
Li'l Wayne had another high-profile beef earlier this month at Hot-97's Summer Jam concert, when he pulled Nicki Minaj off the show because Hot-97 deejay Peter Rosenberg seemed to have criticized one of her songs on stage.
He has previously been involved in exchanges of disrespectful comments with fellow rappers that included Pusha T, Drake, Eminem and 50 Cent.
He also has basketball beef on his resume. Last year he criticized LeBron James and Dwayne Wade of the Heat for not giving him a shoutout when he had a courtside seat in Miami. He’s apparently forgiven them in time for this year’s Finals.
