NBA Promo Thinks It’s Hysterical to Hurl Your Girlfriend Across the Room

The Cleveland Cavaliers aired a promo in-stadium during their playoff game against the Chicago Bulls Wednesday night, and it’s a prime example of what happens when everyone around you is a bro.

Long video short: a Cavs fan tosses his girlfriend across the living room because she’s wearing a Bulls t-shirt. The clip closes on the woman lying on the ground, curled up in pain. She then magically becomes a Cavs fan, because her boyfriend sure done taught her a lesson.

Granted it’s the NFL that has the high-profile domestic abuse scandals lately, but still.

UPDATE – 2:33 p.m. EST: The Cavs apologized:
