Moment between Chris Paul and Steve Kerr resurfaces following big trade

Chris Paul and Steve Kerr are already plenty familiar with one another and not necessarily in the best way.

The surprising news broke on Thursday that the Golden State Warriors were acquiring 12-time All-Star guard Paul in a big trade with the Washington Wizards. Paul is a longtime rival who battled against the Warriors for many years in the Pacific Division and in multiple head-to-head playoff matchups.

An old clip from one of those aforementioned battles went viral in the wake of the big trade. During a Warriors game in 2018, Kerr began joking around from the bench with Paul, who was on the Houston Rockets at the time. Paul responded with a priceless fake laugh before suddenly getting serious.

On Thursday, many Twitter users recalled the hilarious moment, which had already become an iconic meme and is now taking on a second life.
