Flashback Friday: The Time J.R. Smith Thought The Knicks Were Down 2 And Fired Up A 3 With 20 Seconds Left In Regulation Instead Of Holding For The Last Shot Because The Game Was Actually Tied

While I truly cherished the time when Earl Smith wore my team’s colors, shit like this and last night is why it’s a lot more fun when he is on somebody else’s team. Yeah having a guy that chases Rhianna, drops pipe DMs and has a thirst for Henny is fun. But the other side of it will drive you crazy. It’s not all shirtless summers after the parade. There is also the guy that may not know the score in the last minute of a game, can shoot you into a game just as easily as he can shoot you out of a game, and may throw a bowl of soup at a coach in the middle of the season. Okay, that soup story remains fucking hilarious.

I forgot how hard it is to stay mad at J.R. Smith. He’s so goddamn frustrating but so goddamn lovable. Like a new puppy shitting in your house, then licking you, then burning the house down with you inside of it. I’m sure Cavs fans are upset this morning. But give J.R. a day or two and he will make it up to you guys. Sure you are almost definitely going to lose the Finals now. But at least you have a guy that is a walking bucket and a walking meme. It’s hard to stay mad at a guy like this.
