J.R. Smith pretends he’s sweeping after Celtics fan heckles him

At this point in the NBA playoffs, it seems inevitable that we’re going to see the Cavaliers and Warriors in the NBA Finals for the third year in a row, as both teams are on track to sweeping their respective conference finals. Game 2 between the Cavaliers and Celtics on Friday night felt like it was decided from the start, and it got progressively sadder as time passed.

Not every Celtics fan was sad, though. One fan resorted to heckling J.R. Smith in the third quarter. You don’t need to know what the fan said to Smith. All you need to know is that Smith’s response was savage:

Yes, Smith’s reaction was to pretend he had a broom and to start sweeping right in front of the fan. And yes, Smith bumped into a referee while doing that, which made the move even funnier.

Anyway, here’s a GIF of J.R. Smith sweeping, in case you need something to tweet while witnessing a sweep:
