The Clippers won the basketball game on Thursday night (a 19-point victory over the Spurs), but they lost the Twitter game — badly.
The Clippers shared a photo on their social media accounts of star forward Blake Griffin high-fiving assistant trainer Matias Testi. Griffin is wearing a suit, because he’s out of commission with a broken hand, which he sustained punching Testi in the face a bunch of times.
The would-be messaging here is the two friends have made up and Griffin has apologized — at length, almost pathetically — so the image was accompanied by the hashtag #Family.
Cue the Twitter mockery…
