The Los Angeles Clippers elimination from the 2020 NBA Playoffs was a moment Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum had been waiting since the Orlando restart began.

After getting laughed at by Paul George and Patrick Beverley for being 'sent home' early in the postseason, the Trail Blazers guards went right back at them following their Game 7 loss to the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Semifinals.

The Clippers, who had a 3-1 series lead, were looking to make the franchise's first WCF appearance, specially after making some big time moves last summer adding Kawhi Leonard and George.

There's reason why these tweets were sent though, as when 'PG13' was a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder last season, Lillard hit an epic walk-off series-winner over George to end their first round playoff series.

The 'beef' would continue, as during the 'seeding games' Portland faced Los Angeles, where George and Beverley taunted Lillard for missing two late game free throws.
