By Josh Sanchez
A wild series of events in the final minutes of Tuesday night’s Game 5 match up between the Los Angeles Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder led to plenty of controversy and discussion about just how bad the referees screwed up with an out of bounds call that gave the Thunder the ball with a chance to tie the game.

Clippers head coach Doc Rivers and many others sounded off on the controversial calls, but the team’s official Twitter account also wanted to get in on the action.
While Rivers and Matt Barnes will likely receive fines from the NBA league office for their vocal criticism of referees following the game, the Clippers Twitter feed provided three simple letters that provided a handful of laughs on the Twitterverse.
“SMH,” the Clippers account tweeted out.
Not much more needs to be said.
Of course, the head smacking should also be directed at the team’s players, who blew a commanding double-digit lead down the final stretch.
