Ending the season on a sour note is never easy, but who ever said a team couldn't have some fun with it? During the Portland Trail Blazers' Game 4 and season-ending loss to the Golden State Warriors on Monday night, the team's social media department produced a hilarious stream of live tweets as the squad was getting swept by the superior Warriors. It started early as Golden State jumped out to a 22-3 lead and went into halftime with a 24-point advantage. When it appeared the game was out of reach, the team's official Twitter account responded to a Kim Kardashian tweet. They then gazed at a cool picture of Damian Lillard and said goodbye to their jerseys. They even reached out to Chance The Rapper, who had a concert scheduled at Oracle Arena the same night as a potential Game 5. Finally, they wished the Warriors good luck the rest of the way. Losing 128-103 may have been a bitter way to end the season, but at least the Blazers' Twitter account offered levity along the way. --Isaac Chipps
