The entire NBA world is waiting on the free agency decision for LeBron James.
On Tuesday night, fans noticed the Miami Heat’s official YouTube page. They posted a live stream scheduled for July 27 titled “LeBron James Introductory Press Conference.”
It was then quickly deleted in what appeared to be an accident of a drafted post in anticipation of James’ decision.
On Wednesday, one NHL team, the Winnipeg Jets, poked fun at the Heat’s massive gaffe.
It’s quite the troll from the Jets.
One spokesperson for the Heat told Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald that the post was a mistake and there was no validity to the video, although it certainly raised plenty of eyebrows regarding whether or not James is going to end up in Miami.
The Heat also posted a job opening for a Director of YouTube Strategy just hours after the snafu, so it’s quite the fallout from Miami.
As it stands, there is no timetable for a decision from LeBron James, although the finalists appear to be all of the Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, Golden State Warriors, and Philadelphia 76ers.
