Terry Rozier couldn't help but immediately posterize a bold Sixers fan who chirped at him on Twitter Monday night.

Not long after the Celtics lost to the Nuggets 114-105 at TD Garden, the fan mocked a Rozier tweet from Sunday by cleverly predicting a loss to the 76ers on Wednesday. Or at least he thought he was clever.

Rozier responded within one minute with one of the easiest burns he'll ever deliver.

To be exact, the Sixers did beat the C's 89-80 on Jan. 18, 2018. But they're a dreadful 2-17 in their last 19 games against Boston, dating back to the 2015-16 season. So yeah, basically haven't won since the Allen Iverson days.

Philly already hit rock-bottom with a 112-109 home loss to the C's on Feb. 12, which Boston played without Kyrie Irving. So losing again on Wednesday might not be worse. But it would continue a theme that this hapless fan apparently doesn't realize.
