Chris Paul had the pettiest social media post after Clippers got eliminated

The original caption of that meme image read, “I stopped by one of my biggest haters funeral today. Just to make sure that n—a was dead #RIPBozo #DieHatersDie.” Clearly, Paul was very happy to see the Clippers’ season end.

Paul starred for the Clippers from 2011-17 and then returned for a second stint with the franchise in 2025. But the reunion quickly went bad after Paul clashed with multiple Clippers coaches before finally being sent home by the team in the middle of a horrific 6-21 start to the season.

Eventually, the Clippers would sell off Paul at the trade deadline, and Paul never played in another NBA game before formally announcing his retirement in February. Paul would later accuse Clippers executive Lawrence Frank of being two-faced with him, and Paul’s wife Jada even went on to take a public shot at the Clippers of her own.

Interestingly enough, the Clippers righted the ship soon after sending Paul home and finished out the year at a very respectable 42-40 for their 15th consecutive winning season. But Paul is getting the last laugh on the Clippers now that their 2025-26 campaign has still come to an early end (though one can debate the merits of this kind of petty behavior by Paul at almost 41 years old).
