We live in an ultra-sensitive world, so every funny parody or skit has to be analyzed for bad taste or poor judgement.
Somehow during last night Cavs vs Bulls game two in Cleveland — Cavs officials released this video that many are calling “tone-deaf” — of a Cavs fan wrecking his lady because she was wearing Bulls gear.
Strangest thing of night: when videoscreen showed skit of a guy in Cavs gear throwing girlfriend across room until she removed Bulls gear.

@EthanJSkolnick he slams her, she's wearing an ice pack & she was to one to apologize while changing her behavior. Awful message.

@EthanJSkolnick I think it was a parody of this commercial… http://t.co/xpeDwj2pAW

I get the gist of the joke, but Cavs officials would have definitely benefited from going with a brother wrecking his brother, or friend slamming another friend.
