Miami Heat fans took umbrage with a photo shared by Bleacher Report to their Twitter account on Sunday ahead of Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
The photo in question is a picture of LeBron James from his time with the Miami Heat, but it was swapped for a Cleveland Cavaliers jersey.
Can LeBron pull off one more epic performance in Boston? pic.twitter.com/XDMfXwvD7A

In 2012, the year LeBron won his first NBA championship, his Miami Heat beat the Boston Celtics in Game 7 to advance to the Finals. The difference is Miami was at home for that game, whereas James’ Cavs are on the road this year.
Heat fans didn’t appreciate the original image being switched.
