J.R. Smith answers questions with ski mask on, says it's his alter ego

J.R. Smith talked to reporters like this after the Cavaliers lost to the Bucks.

J.R. Smith talked to reporters while wearing a black ski mask that he says was a gift from Ohio State ( the Cavs were at an OSU game this weekend) following the Cavaliers' 118-101 loss to the Bucks in Milwaukee on Tuesday night.

Reporters shared video of Smith talking about the play in which he gave up a dunk because he was giving Jason Terry a high-five, and about how the ski mask represents his alter ego.

About that blunder of a play, Smith first tries to avoid the question. Finally, he says, "Oh, I didn't know I was in the game. My bad."

When asked about the ski mask, Smith says it's his alter ego, and when asked if his alter ego has a name, he says yes, but he can't say what it is.

That's one way to handle a loss.
