Spurs' Aldridge disables Twitter account after bad Warriors loss

Published Jan. 26, 2016 2:28 p.m. ET

LaMarcus Aldridge was supposed to be the difference maker in Monday night's matchup between his San Antonio Spurs and the defending champion Golden State Warriors. 

Instead, he failed, scoring five points on nine shots. Aldridge was badly outplayed by Warriors forward Draymond Green, and couldn't seem to get himself involved on either end of the floor.

How did he respond to the atrocious performance? Well, he disabled his Twitter account. 

Aldridge should probably erase Vine from his phone while he's at it:

It was a tough night for everybody in a Spurs uniform, but Aldridge's play was especially worrisome. He's the key if San Antonio is to make Golden State pay for going small (or, as a center in their own small-ball units). 

To do so, he needs to dominate his one-on-one match-up, attack the glass and, um, not get put on skates by Stephen Curry. 

All things considered, disabling his Twitter account is probably the right/healthiest call either way. Those mentions wouldn't be a very happy place right now.
