Sixers And Bucks Exchange Jabs On Twitter
By Ray Boyd
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- NBA teams have come to be quite entertaining on social media and the Sixers have established themselves at one of the best in the business when it comes to Twitter.
On Monday night, the Sixers and Bucks exchanged jabs on Twitter in reference to the 2001 Eastern Conference Finals in which the Sixers defeated the Bucks in seven games to advance to the NBA Finals.
The Bucks featured a "this day in history," on Twitter honoring Ray Allen's impressive 41 point performance to force a game seven.

Let's just say, the Sixers took notice.

To the Bucks credit, they didn't just take the insult. In fact, they came back with a jab of their own reminding the Sixers that they missed out on the 2015 NBA Playoffs, unlike the Bucks.
@Sixers whenever you want to rejoin the playoff party, we'll be ready.

The Bucks then responded by throwing this past season's trade in the Sixers' face.
