There's no question that Chris Paul is a Los Angeles Clippers legend. But on Wednesday night, the future NBA Hall of Famer sure seemed happy to see the Golden State Warriors beat his former team.
Shortly after Golden State's 126-121 over the Clippers in their Inglewood home, Paul took to his Instagram story and posted a photo of a man well known from a decade-old meme, catching the attention of many folks on social media.

As KnowYourMeme breaks down, back in 2015, a screenshot circulated from an Instagram user named BigFend, showing the man at a funeral service.

In the decade-plus since, just an image of that man at the funeral without the caption has been enough for the internet-savvy folks to understand what a person is trying to say. And in this case, Paul posting it is less about him outright rooting for the Warriors, the team he played for in the 2023-24 season, but more about his attempt at a reunion with the Clippers this season.
Paul played in 16 of the first 21 games for Los Angeles in a bench role this year to start the season. But as the Clippers struggled mightily to start the season, the veteran was shockingly cut in the middle of the night on a road trip in early December. In the weeks that followed, story after story came out detailing how Paul and the Clippers leadership clashed over a variety of topics - his role, his level of input on coaching the players and his leadership style, among others.
The dismissal stung Paul, who had announced while he was still playing that the 2025-26 season would be his final year on the court. While there were rumors of interest from other teams, Paul decided to officially retire in mid-February, making this brief and tumultuous return to the Clippers his last run as an NBA player.
The Clippers rebounded and soared into playoff contention after Paul left and earned the right to host Wednesday's play-in game. But after their season ended at the hands of the Warriors and Paul's one-time foe Steph Curry, Paul clearly enjoyed getting to dance on the grave of the team that cut him earlier this season.
