Twitter Trash Talking Between Blazers, Suns and Hawks

The people running the NBA Team twitter accounts are doing a pretty good job this year.  Particularly enjoyed the twitter trash talk that was dished out earlier this week.

After beating the Eastern Conference leading-Indiana Pacers at home on Monday, the t-blazers account sent out the following

Pretty witty considering that on Tuesday there were only two (yes like the number after one) teams in the Eastern Conference with a record better than .500.

Then the Phoenix Suns decided to doggy pile on the Blazers zinger,

oooohhhh, a zinger followed up by another zinger that is realistic cause if the Suns were in the East, they would be 3rd in the conference with their 10 - 9 record.

Later that night, there was a twitter response from the Atlanta Hawks after they beat the Clippers.

Overall, pretty chill to see that team twitter accounts are doing more than just tweeting out highlights of their games. 

With the league fining guys for what they say on their twitter accounts, the only kind of trash talk we get are the really polite kind like what we saw between Roy Hibbert and Lamarcus Aldridge.

No way David Stern can fine the social media guys posting for the NBA teams, so I'm hopeful we'll keep getting more of these passive aggressive disses.
