The Portland Trail Blazers edged the Memphis Grizzlies 112-109 Friday night, in a game that featured an unusual final 30 seconds.
Things got a little more interesting on Twitter after the game.
It all started because the people running the official Trail Blazers Twitter couldn’t resist taking a little shot at Parsons for an airball three.
To be fair, the NBA 3-point line is really, really far away from the basket. pic.twitter.com/dHusI9cHcW

Apparently, they will not be exchanging Christmas cards next December.
For the record, Portland is six games below .500 but just half a game out of the playoffs.
