'Nice try kiddo': Dwyane Wade, Gabrielle Union defend themselves in 76ers GM story

News that shocked the Philadelphia 76ers and the NBA on Tuesday night also had a Miami Heat tie-in.

The Ringer's Ben Detrick on Tuesday wrote an in-depth piece claiming that 76ers president of basketball operations and general manager Bryan Colangelo created a handful of fake Twitter accounts that he used to criticize players and league executives, among other accusations.

Deep into the story, Detrick wrote that one of the fake accounts — Twitter handle @A1Vic40117560 and account name "Eric jr" — took a shot at the Heat's Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union for something that reportedly happened during the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.
