The Miami Heat managed to get in a good social media dig at the Boston Celtics — and, incredibly, the Dallas Cowboys.
On Tuesday night, the Heat beat the Celtics 98-95, evening their season series against Boston 2-2. The Celtics had difficulty keeping the ball secure, recording 17 turnovers to the Heat’s 7. Jayson Tatum alone had as many turnovers as the Heat combined.
After the game, Miami’s social media team posted this.

Kind of an odd way of phrasing things, right? That’s because it’s a direct reference to a tweet the Dallas Cowboys sent out after their loss to the San Francisco 49ers — a tweet that was, unusually, directed at Dak Prescott.

Two trolls with one tweet. Not bad.
