Lol you have JR Smith

 

Haha seriously

 

Smart was emotional anyway, his mom just died. at least he didn't kill her by driving drunk tho

 

Also remember when Woj exposed JR as a fake thug and called him a literal con man. Marcus is not fake at least!

Knicks bench J.R. Smith, but NBA's clown prince will be back soon enough

He can make it sound so sincere, but the con never ends. J.R. Smith was raised in a suburban, middle-class home with two good parents and access to an excellent education. He had a tremendous high school coaching mentor – Dan Hurley at St. Benedict's Prep in Newark, N.J. – and he has long been taught the difference of right and wrong. Smith's always loved to play the part of a tough city kid, but truth be told, he's a soft, spoiled, suburban jump-shooter.

And when Smith's benching ends with these Knicks, there will be no epiphanies. No revelations. Everyone knows how this story ends with him, how the money will dry up and how he'll wish he had done everything so differently in his career. It is sad and predictable and on a collision course with cliche.

 

You guys all took that way too seriously.

 

i just dont like JR and kept discovering/remembering more reasons why. maybe got carried away

 

NBA Pre-Season is life or death.

 

i’m glad my team doesn’t have either of those dweebs

 

Long live JR

The most respectable nba player ever.

 

You don’t have to like JR, but you do have to respect the entertainment value he’s given everyone

 

John Henson hit a three tonight

 

I don’t believe you

 

The bucks are gonna play Henson with brook, right? That could be interesting

 

Lmao wow

 

I’d fire him to for giving Ariza 15mil

 

Wait, what?

The timing of this is...interesting.

 

Fucking lol

 

James Jones!

 

Holy shit, I actually completely forgot he had a year to get the team competitive so this is about right but why not do it before the draft?? I don't get it at all, the team looks way better than last year, tarver is trash

 

Wait ariza got that much?!? I didn't know that

 

Hah they are screwed

 

Don’t do it Suns.... Not McHale

 

McDonough will probably land a cushy job back with the Celtics

 

Was it cause the season is like a week away and they don’t have a PG?
