Republican contender John Kasich used a New Hampshire town hall Friday morning to throw some shade at the Philadelphia 76ers, according to ABC political reporter Ben Gittleson.
Kasich says he ran into the @Sixers in his hotel this morning. "How did I know who they were? They were really tall." Then he insults them.

The 76ers fired back on Twitter minutes later and then promptly deleted their tweet, but not before Gittleson got a screencap:

Kasich, who is the governor of Ohio, is polling at three percent, according to the results of a Quinnipiac University poll released on Thursday. In the 2014–2015 season, the 76ers won 22 percent of their games.
