Blake Griffin Calls Out Jalen Rose, Paul Piece and DeMarcus Cousins in One Perfect Tweet
By Max Scoli
It wouldn't be the NBA offseason without some Twitter beef, with Detroit Pistons big man Blake Griffin being right in the middle of all the drama.
Griffin delivered the first fatal blow, taking shots at Jalen Rose, Paul Pierce and DeMarcus Cousins all in one comment.
.@paulpierce34 @JalenRose y’all are soft but not NEARLY as soft as @boogiecousins.#softlikeCharmin #charminpartner

Of course, still salty from his NBA Finals loss, Cousins couldn't resist firing back with his own shade.
Yo @blakegriffin23 you have no room to talk. Your skills need so much cleanup it’ll take more than @Charmin to wipe your soft act off the court #softlikeCharmin #charminpartner
— DeMarcus Cousins (@boogiecousins) June 24, 2019
From there, these NBA superstars, both past and present, have just been trading insult after insult like children. Somebody break this up before Paul Pierce gets carried off in a wheelchair to relieve himself.
.hey @boogiecousins unlike @paulpierce34 i score number two’s in the basket and not on the court. #softlikeCharmin #charminpartner
— Blake Griffin (@blakegriffin23) June 24, 2019
Here's Jalen!
Hey @blakegriffin23 @paulpierce34 @boogiecousins what’s it like scoring twos? I’ve been too busy sinking threes #softlikeCharmin #charminpartner
— Jalen Rose (@JalenRose) June 24, 2019
And now he's going after Pierce!
.@paulpierce34 I just ran out of TP and thought of you. Too bad @Charmin didn’t have courtside delivery back in 2008 when you scored your #slamdump #softlikeCharmin #charminpartner
— Jalen Rose (@JalenRose) June 24, 2019
Then Boogie called out both the retired players.
I’m not sure what’s worse @paulpierce34 running off the court to go or @JalenRose staying on to soil the game. I think you both deserve a #softlikeCharmin award. #charminpartner

Cousins rarely gets along with anyone to begin with, so when you add Griffin's antagonizing tendencies into the mix, Twitter brawls like these can break out and last for hours.
If they really wanted to know which one of them is soft, they would just look at their feeds and realize they are all soft for merely engaging in this mindless exchange of opinion.
Truth be told: Cousins and Griffin could both use some Charmin to clean up after their disappointing seasons.
