March 18, 2015Cutting Down the Nets: Cavaliers vs. Brooklyn Behind the Box Score
March 18, 2015For the last two years, Portland Trail Blazers center Robin Lopez has made a living off teasing mascots. Whenever the Blazers hit the road, mascots are in danger. He’s had a noted history with Cleveland Cavaliers mascot Moondog.
That history — and the Cavs’ home date with the Brooklyn Nets tonight — led to the above hilarious Instagram post earlier this afternoon. Of course, Robin’s twin brother Brook plays for the Nets. And apparently, he’s much more friendly to mascots.
The Instagram post started to go viral after the Trail Blazers Twitter account shared it again just before game time. Robin already had responded earlier in the day, as well:
This is dirty pool @cavsmoondog. I hope you all choke on that popcorn. #IThoughtWeWereFamYo #ForAllTheEdMikans pic.twitter.com/oCRXoKiKlD

Moondog also has had a fun relationship with Grantland writer Zach Lowe throughout the year. The two even had a little jabbing on Twitter earlier today. The dog has been fairly friendly with some of the Cavalier Girls, too.
But there you go again, Robin Lopez. The ball is in your court the next time Portland faces off against the Cavs. We’ll all be waiting anxiously.
