    Haha, no worries. Yeah he is a bone head. I found it particularly interesting for him to acknowledge that his career was "dwindling". Like abeer said, it was just nice to see him have a moment like this,. Very surprising if anything. Because basically, I still hate this guy. I look at him differently, but I know he has a career of boneheaddedness that I can't forget or ignore.

    It's always good to see a different side of these athletes and know they're at least capable of being normal human beings. It doesn't necessarily change who they are, but it's good to see anyway.

    85% chance he ends up on the broke athletes list 5 years after retirement.

    I know, going out on a limb there.

    This was on the parade route lmbo

    2016, the year the NBA went insane with salaries, made Mike Conley the highest paid NBA player for a time, and gave JR Smith 57 mil.

    And the salary cap jumped enough to let KD join a team that made the final two years in a row.

    Crazy numbers.

    i've always been very down on smith, but i do think he was quite important to the cavs last year. of course, i would bet on a messy split prior to year 4 of this deal...
