On Monday, Los Angeles Clippers veteran Nicolas Batum was just trying to create some engagement with his fans on Twitter. Little did he know that his innocent tweet would lead to a hilariously savage burn from a troll.

Batum started off by asking his followers for a simple update on the goings-on in the world:

The Clippers forward probably forgot that he was on the mean streets of Twitter here and that there are more than a few trolls out there waiting for an opportunity to strike. This was exactly the case for Tiffany:

Ouch. That hurt. Tiffany just had to remind Batum of how the Clippers missed out on the postseason this year — just the second time in the past decade.

Batum caught wind of the tweet and he could not help but respond:

To be fair, Tiffany did apologize to the Clippers vet. For his part, Batum acknowledged the apology as well as the epic burn:

All is well that ends well, I guess.

In case you missed it, Batum recently declined his $3.3 million player option with the Clippers for next season. This doesn't necessarily mean that he's leaving LA, though. This actually paves the way for the 33-year-old to sign a bigger deal with the Clippers. That is of course, under the presumption that LA wants him back.
