The basketball gods have a sense of humor. How else could we end up with bitter rivals, Patrick Beverly and Russell Westbrook on the same team? And one of the most highest profile teams in all of sports in the Los Angeles Lakers.

Yet, here we are. And social media had a lot of jokes about the enemies having to coexist.

Let’s go to the tweets.
