Richard Jefferson was universally liked by his Cleveland Cavaliers teammates during his two-year tenure with the franchise that came to an end Friday when he was dealt to the Atlanta Hawks.

Kevin Love showed love to the departing veteran Saturday with an Instagram post of the two during the Cavaliers' 2016 NBA championship parade. He even went as far as calling Jefferson a "f---ing idiot," although it's clear he was being playful.

Jefferson started a pair of games in the Finals that year, as the Cavs overcame a 3-1 series deficit against the Golden State Warriors to capture their first-ever title.
