The Miami Heat had their fair share of funny Twitter trolls against opponents this season. 

On Tuesday, they were on the receiving end of it. 

The Atlanta Hawks official Twitter account used Tuesday's victory as opportunity to throw their own social media shade at the Heat and Miami Marlins. 

With the game winding down, the Hawks threw up a tweet that said, "sounds like a Marlins game in there." It was in reference to the Heat's quiet crowd and the Marlins' poor attendance over the years. 

The Marlins sort of fired back by asking, "was this supposed to be funny." 

Sporting teams trolling each other has become a trend in recent years. The Heat did it several times earlier this season, including against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks could be the Heat's first-round opponent. The Heat have one more chance to make the playoffs but have to defeat either the Toronto Raptors or Chicago Bulls Friday. The Raptors and Bulls play tonight.
