The Portland Trail Blazers’ social media person made a bold call on Tuesday night. Following their victory over the Kings, he or she tweeted a GIF of DeMarcus Cousins and Rajon Rondo colliding.
They even included a bowling ball and pins:

Unsurprisingly, fans weren’t thrilled with the aggressive attempt at mocking their opponent:
@trailblazers How is this funny? Why would you post this?

@trailblazers Wow…stay classy Portland. Nothing funny about players getting hurt isn’t funny. Not cool, guys. Not cool at all.
