Kawhi Leonard and the Los Angeles Clippers will not be playing against the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals after blowing a 3-1 lead.

The Denver Nuggets, who also came back from a 3-1 deficit against the Utah Jazz, will be going instead. The Nuggets are the first team in NBA history to force their way to advancing after overcoming consecutive 3-1 series deficits.

The Nuggets defeated the Clippers in Game 7 with a final score of 104-89 on Tuesday night.

Of course, NBA Twitter let loose on the Clippers with a barrage of jokes and jabs. NBA stars like Damian Lillard, CJ McCollum, and Kevin Love also commented on it all with the aforementioned Blazers players doing some Cancun-related trolling. Back in August, Lillard, Paul George, and Patrick Beverley traded shots after Bev yelled "Dame Time" at Lillard when he missed two free throws.
