Oh,Chilli and Banana J.R. Smith. NBA fans love the Cleveland Cavs' shooting guard for reasons both ridiculous and poignant.
Which is why a tweet posted then deleted from Smith's account after the Warriors beat Cleveland in Game 3 of the NBA Finals could onlyhave come from him.
But this time, he says, it wasn't him.
SEE ALSO: Sorry to kill your buzz but ... Steph Curry double-dribbled in that viral NBA Finals highlightThe Warriors beat Cleveland on Wednesday night to take a 3-0 NBA Finals lead. This makes it all but certain they'll win the final game they need to clinch the best-of-seven series.
But that didn't stop Smith's account from posting a tweet that the Cavaliers will actually come back to win this series in seven games.

The, um, interestingpost immediately drew thousands of retweets even though it was deleted minutes later.
You can't blame fans for assuming Smith posted the message, either. He's the guy who once:
Got fined $50,000 for untying an opponents' shoe laces on the court.
Asked a fan via Twitter if she was "trying to get the pipe" after a road game.
Said the armored truck he drove was due to his being at #War with #HATERS.
Bought cotton candy from a vendor while sitting on the bench during his own game.
Trolled Knicks fans, while playing for the Knicks, by posting a classic Instagram.
But this time Smith says he's innocent.

"I got out of the shower and my phone was buzzing. I did not tweet that," Smith told Cleveland.com after the game. "I'm smarter than that."
But, he told reporters, "I could see myself saying that. For sure. Absolutely."
Then he added another thought: "Oh yeah, we comin' back. I wouldn't be myself if I didn't think that."
So, in other words: Cavs in 7.
