The Portland Trail Blazers and Golden State Warriors are playing a preseason game on Friday night, but a meaningless exhibition game didn’t stop the Blazers’ Twitter account from unleashing this burn on the Warriors:
The “3-1” line is of course a jab at the Warriors for blowing a 3-1 series lead to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals. Then again, Golden State also beat these same Blazers 4-1 in the Western Conference Semifinals, so I’m not sure the Blazers have much room to be mocking.
Whatever the case, this certainly got Portland’s Twitter account plenty of attention and will end up paying off for their follower count, but tossing any possible extra motivation the Warriors’ way is probably a bad idea.
