Iman Shumpert has no chill whatsoever.

The Cleveland Cavaliers swingman recently revealed he made fun of his former teammate, Carmelo Anthony, after winning a title.

"I definitely teased him about having a ring before him," the former New York Knick said in a video interview with Complex.

It could've been worse, though, as Shump said he didn't mention this meme to Melo:

Anthony wasn't Shumpert's only victim, either.

The 6-foot-5 shooting guard said, "I ain't gonna joke on none of my teammates. They're all champions."

He went on to say he's the best dressed Cavalier "by a large margin," however, and roasted some of LeBron James' outfits and love of do-rags, as well as some other teammates.

The 26-year-old was just having fun, and said Anthony "appreciates the fun" - contrary to everything you know about "Grandpa Melo." According to Shumpert, after they were finished kidding around, Anthony said "You know we gonna kill y'all this year? Just know it's war."

NBA fans won't have to wait long for this matchup, as the Cavs host the Knicks on opening night.
