Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason is out for the year and hasn’t played since New Year’s Day.
Yet he decided to start trolling the Dubs with the Golden State Warriors and his squad jockeying for position in the play-in standings. Last month, he dropped a video imitating the “WARRIORS! COME OUT TO PLAY-YAY!” from the classic movie, The Warriors. Remember that scene with the dude and the bottles clinking on his hands? See that link above.
Eason took it a step further with the Warriors and Rockets playing on Thursday. He wore a “Warriors come out to play t-shirt.” Now, he didn’t play one minute of the game, and he watched as the Warriors won 133-110. And Steph Curry decided to do the bottle-clinking reference in response:

Klay Thompson responded, too:
“That’s pretty lame. Especially if you’re not even playing … you’re just gonna be trolling from the sideline. Bro, what are we doing?”

This is the best. Mostly for the Warriors, but we love to see all the trolling back-and-forth.
