【Sex in the Game (2017)】

After getting smoked in Oakland for the second straight NBA Finals game on Sex in the Game (2017)Sunday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers' locker room reportedly sported a very distinct smell.

No, not the stench of a loss. The smell of marijuana.

Mike Wise of The Undefeatedreported Sunday night that the Cavs' locker room had a "strong reefer aroma" after Game 2 of the Finals, which Cleveland lost 132-113. (We can only imagine the phrase "strong reefer aroma" being said in the dad-est dad voice.)

ESPN's Brian Windhorst said on Tuesday that he too caught a whiff Sunday night after Game 2. Here he is discussing it on First Take.

As others have mentioned, this certainly doesn't mean a Cavs player smoked pot in the locker room after Game 2. With teammates and coaches present, as well as a horde of media entering, that would present a logistical challenge -- among other drawbacks.

Maybe a player had something rolled in his locker for later Sunday night. Or maybe a media member had weed on his or her person, or had just stepped out for a puff and brought it in fresh. Or maybe a lot of other things. This is a minor mystery and puzzling side-story, not some huge scandal.

But ifa few Cavs didsneak a toke before hitting the showers Sunday night, consider this: They'd just gotten whooped by 20 points in two straight games to a team that appears unbeatable and they're in a state where ganja's legal.

Could you really blame them for partaking?

After all, you know the traditional Oakland saying: "Potna, let's go half on a sack" it goes, right?
