Of course, conspiracy theorists jumped on it.
Tuesday brought more fodder for believers that the league is rigged, as Delta Airlines mistakenly identified the Dubs as the 2016 champions, per a photo from ESPN.com's Dave McMenamin.
As a reminder, the Finals begin Thursday.
Upon closer inspection, the error fails to fuel the conspiracy fires. The title was for a documentary about Golden State's 2014-15 championship season. Just look under the team's logo on the left.
C'mon now—take those tinfoil hats off, everyone.
