Slide Into His DMs: Here's Why This Cavs' Fan Had J.R. Smith Sign an Actual Pipe

The background story on this is a damn mess.

President Obama will be happy to know that J.R. Smith has finally put on a shirt.

But that doesn't mean that the Cleveland Cavaliers' shooting guard isn't still having the time of his life.

Four days after winning the NBA championship and wildly celebrating shirtless for the next 36 hours, Smith has become a fan favorite among the Cavs' faithful. But all J.R. could do was break out into laughter upon a fan request Thursday night to sign an actual pipe.

Why would a fan ask him to autograph "the pipe?"

Well, he's definitely a die-hard fan with a good memory because there's a messy background story to this strange autograph request, which dates back to more than three years ago.

Look how fast J.R. turned on this chick, who slid in his DMs, before hitting her with, "You trying to get the pipe?"

J.R. has zero chill. 

And the championship celebration continues.
