Now there's a reference I haven't heard in years. (I do miss UPN.)

But I have it on good authority that jaybird was a huge Dawson's Creek fan growing up back in Trinidad & Tobago.

^On second thought, there's no chance JR Smith was alone in his hotel room last night.

lol

I didn't see what happened. I was legit asking. Still am.

The consensus I've read elsewhere is that he suffered from the mother of all brain farts.

On the biggest stage.

In his fourth go round.

:-?


Just think of what a player would do if their team was up 1 and he got the offensive rebound on a free throw. He'd dribble it out to allow time to run before the opposing team fouls him, right?

Well, that's what Earl did. Only ... the game was tied.

All he had to do was turn and fire it out to James for the epic, game-winning 3. I have no doubt he would've drilled that shot. Instead, Earl meanders out to the 3pt line unawares as time runs out.

1st thing I thought about CP3 yelling at Jordan to shoot the ball. :lol:

I might be in the minority here but I think for the first time JR Smith did the right thing. Hear me out, he didn’t shoot the layup because he can’t hit 2 footers..he can only hit from 25+ feet out...so instead of missing what is essentially the easiest shot in the game, he ...

Well ok fine he had like a few other options...he’s a moron I can’t defend him your honor..

Is there legit concern that JR intentionally threw the game?

Or is this terrible basketball awareness?

Read on Twitter

It was JR being JR, meaning that he was just an idiot out there.

If it would've been someone else then I may briefly entertain the suspicion of foul play, but with a JR or a Nick Young, it's completely believable that he'd do something so stupid.

^As far as I'm concerned, the playoffs were cancelled and these guys have been watching an extended summer league series.

Same thing that happened every summer from 2000 - 2007.

In JR's defense his shirt was probably really itchy. It's hard to concentrate with a shirt on.

It's unbelievable just how bad the Cavs are outside of LeBron.

That Kyrie/Isaiah trade will go down as one of the most one-sided of all time.
