The Houston Rockets are out of the NBA playoffs, and forward Trevor Ariza could be a reason why after he averaged just 6.6 points on 25.5 percent shooting in the team’s first-round loss to the Golden State Warriors.
For some reason or another,Ariza got into a Twitter war with an angry fan, going so far as to say “I’m on my way” when the fan challenged him to a fight in a feud that goes all the way back to November. Check out the entire exchange below!

Thankfully, Ariza made the right decision and just brushed off the troll’s words, but the fact that he actually verbally engaged with him is a bit dangerous. This could have been a giant PR nightmare that just blew up in his face and may have cost him his career, but thankfully better judgment took over.
Just remember, Trev. NEVER feed the trolls under any circumstances.
