Almost immediately after the Golden State Warriors' Game 3 victory over the Cavs, a tweet from J.R. Smith's twitter account simply read, "Cavs in 7."
However, J.R. claims his account was hacked, telling reporters during his post-game interview, "I'm smarter than that."
Per ESPN,
"I got out of the shower and my phone was buzzing. I did not tweet that," Smith told Cleveland.com after his postgame locker room interview session.
"I'm smarter than that."
J.R. added that he still has faith in his team, despite last night's devastating loss that put them down 3-0, but he isn't dumb enough to tweet something like that right after the 118-113 loss.
"But I didn't tweet that," Smith repeated. "I would be much smarter than that to tweet that at literally 12:04, right after the game."
We all know the Cavs came back from down 3-1 last season, but now they'll have to accomplish what no NBA team has done before - come back to win a series after trailing 3-0.
Game 4 is scheduled for Friday night at 9pm.
