The official Twitter account for the NBA really messed up when they tweeted a gif of Amy Schumer and Dave Chappelle, but referred to Chappelle only as “a fan.”
In the gif, Schumer is seen pointing at Chappelle during the latest NBA playoff game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics.
NBA captioned the gif, “Amy and a fan on @NBAonTNT.”

Someone should have told the NBA that you don’t diss Dave Chappelle, especially not when it involves Amy Schumer, because Twitter users quickly destroyed the tweet.
@NBA @NBAonTNT You’re kidding, right? This is why you don’t let a 22 year old run social.

@EscoBlades @NBA @NBAonTNT On behalf of white people worldwide, we disavow Amy Schumer as she is a member of the cattle family.
