Cleveland Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith watched the Los Angeles Lakers face off against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night, and loved every moment of it.
The game was a thriller, with the Spurs edging out the Lakers, 143-142, in overtime. LeBron James, Kyle Kuzma, DeMar DeRozan, and LaMarcus Aldridge all had fantastic games.
Though the Spurs had held the lead throughout the first three quarters, the fourth quarter featured a series of lead changes, with James hitting a deep 3-pointer towards the end of regulation to force overtime. Though the Lakers had held a six-point lead at one point in overtime, the Spurs fought back and ultimately won, thanks to a go-ahead basket by guard Patty Mills.
Smith made sure to express how much he loved the game, as he took to Twitter for a series of tweets that expressed his emotions.
Smith also retweeted the following video, released by SLAM, of James’ game-tying three:
