But on Wednesday night, the future NBA Hall of Famer sure seemed happy to see the Golden State Warriors beat his former team. Shortly after Golden State's 126-121 over the Clippers in their Inglewood home, Paul took to his Instagram story and posted a photo of a man well known from a decade-old meme, catching the attention of many folks on social media .

bsky. social ) April 15, 2026 at 9:58 PM As KnowYourMeme breaks down, back in 2015, a screenshot circulated from an Instagram user named BigFend, showing the man at a funeral service. In the caption, BigFend said he "stopped by one of my biggest haters funeral" because he wanted to make sure that person was dead.

The post also included two hashtags: #RIPBozo and #DieHatersDie. In the decade-plus since, just an image of that man at the funeral without the caption has been enough for the internet-savvy folks to understand what a person is trying to say. And in this case, Paul posting it is less about him outright rooting for the Warriors, the team he played for in the 2023-24 season, but more about his attempt at a reunion with the Clippers this season.
