BY RYAN ABER raber@opubco.com Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals isn't going to be decided for another 24 hours or so but someone at the NBA's online store jumped the gun a bit Friday. For a time Friday night, the store featured blue shirts with the Thunder logo under "Beat the Heat," although the description said it was a "Beat L.A." shirt. The item was quickly removed and if you follow the original link now, you'll get an error page. Boston.SBNation.com, though, was able to capture a screenshot before the item was pulled: [caption id="attachment_9411" align="alignleft" width="532" caption="The NBA's online store briefly featured a Thunder "Beat the Heat" shirt on its site Friday."]
