Now that they’ve swept the Toronto Raptors, the Cleveland Cavaliers have an extended period with no games as they await their Eastern Conference Finals opponent. Either the Wizards or Celtics will face the Cavs in the next round but Cleveland isn’t too worried about who they are going to face.
In fact, J.R. Smith isn’t even going to watch the rest of the Celtics-Wizards second-round series. He’s going to watch the Golf Channel instead.
“I watch the Golf Channel,” Smith said. “I don’t watch [Celtics-Wizards] honestly. I try not to.”
