Rockets GM Daryl Morey approves of off-color joke about Warriors fans

Share

Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey is used to spending a good chunk of his time trying to figure out how to beat the Warriors in a playoff series.

But with the NBA season currently shut down indefinitely because of the coronavirus pandemic, Morey has time to focus on other things.

So on Tuesday afternoon, he posted to Instagram:

Innocent enough, right? Nothing controversial about that.

But when the account "zavier2002" commented with: "Bout to do a drive by on some warrior fans," Morey replied with: "yes!"

The 2017-18 NBA Executive of the Year clearly is messing around, as he has publicly demonstrated a sense of humor over the years.

Warriors fans (or anybody else for that matter) should laugh this off and not make a big deal out of it. But you never know how some people will react to a joke.

Morey certainly has been at the center of a number of controversies during his tenure with the Rockets. Hopefully, this Instagram comment doesn't get added to the list.
