Damian Lillard rips Skip Bayless for being a ‘joke’ and uses clown emoji

Oh boy.

Undisputed personality Skip Bayless has been called out by athletes, teams and others many times before, from Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum to the New Orleans Pelicans to Ezekiel Elliott’s mom.

Time to add McCollum’s backcourt-mate Damian Lillard to the mix.

Bayless spent Monday ripping Lillard on the FOX Sports show, wondering if he is “That Guy,” as in a superstar in the NBA (the answer is: he is. End of story).

Lillard responded on Twitter when Bayless teased his appearance: “I have never been buying nothing about you fam. You a joke. And after our private convo full of back pedaling you will never have my respect.”

He added a clown emoji at the end for emphasis. What’s noteworthy here is he notes they’ve spoken away from the cameras and social media, and that it was very different:

Here’s Bayless around the 3:40 mark discussing Lillard:

Oh boy.
