The Cleveland Cavaliers might own the best record in the NBA’s Eastern Conference, but they have not been playing like the No. 1 seed or defending champions as of late. Heading into Wednesday night’s game against the Sacramento Kings, the Cavs were losers of two straight and five of their last seven.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, LeBron James went on a rant following Monday night’s loss to the New Orleans Pelicans and it seemed to have made matters worse. The Cavs had the lead over the Kings heading into the fourth quarter, but Sacramento managed to fight back and defeat Cleveland in overtime on their home court. Following the game, the Kings social team took a shot at the Cavaliers and their recent struggles.
The Sacramento Kings aren’t really in a place to fire shots like this. The Cavaliers have made the playoffs the past two years and won the championship last year, while the Kings haven’t made the playoffs since the 2005-06 campaign. However, this is the ultimate troll job and absolutely hilarious, but they weren't done there.
This isn’t the first time the Kings’ social team has thrown shade at a team or the fans.
We can’t wait to see who their next victim is.
