I've watched a few knick games, seems like he can't take his time with the triangle, gets frustrated and jack up stupid shots..

Is this guy a cancer?

He's the best player in Knicks history. His jersey will be hanging from the rafters one day. Book it.

top 10 sg when playing under control, I think Fish can harness his talent and reel him in a bit. If he doesn't perform there other guys on the team that will take his place.

He's a selfish chucker.

Knicks get better if they lose him quick.

he's not a cancer, knicks definitely needs his scoring like we saw 2 days ago:D but yes he do need to tone it down with his mistakes.

Oddly enough whenever I go to the Garden, he has a great game and Shumpert does horrible. Live, I see Shumpert take way too many threes when his biggest plus on offense is his athleticism but sadly he never developed the handles to slash. JR can do it all but does have a lot of mental lapses on defense that are evident while watching him live. Some really questionable offensive plays too. But like Melo, JR was the only other guy who was performing on a decently consistent level last year.

I think this sums up JR Smith quite well. :pimp:

Gives the Knicks some much needed scoring because after Melo, the offensive skill is severely lacking.

Sad as it to say, he's a chucker and I would much rather the Knicks were without him. His priorities aren't straight, dude was partying with Rihanna while stinkin it up in the playoffs 2 years back. I thought he had changed, but he will always be the same. It's a shame too, because Knicks need his scoring.

Funny guy; a real character. Blessed with athleticism. Bad shot maker. The kind of guy you hate to lose because he could bring you 22 points on any given night.

Ball watcher....gets lost on "D". Not clear-headed enough for what we're doing now. I can't wait for the upgrade.

with a higher basketball IQ and defense, JR smith could have had a great career, IMO a la Latrel Spreewell.

He's one of those guys you hold onto for too long because of talent/potential. He doesn't try hard on D and he constantly makes stupid decisions on both sides of the ball.

Never put this fool in the same breath as Spinners Spree.....

All the talent in the world with 1 good year that earned him 6th man of the year in a 10 year career? This guy could only succeed with a real superstar on the team that has real leadership skills or a dominant coach to keep him in check.
Unfortunately my Knicks never had either.

I wont say he is a cancer because he only gets away with what GM's, Coaches, and players allow him to.

I have absolutely disdain and lack any respect for this guy and wish he gets jettisoned from the Knicks.

This is Bargnani in a nutshell when he was a Raptor. I hope Fisher realizes that he can't play Amar'e and Bargs at the same time.

Oh, I think the word on Bargs is out early. He showed his complete game the first game of pre-season. A handful of mid-range jumpers, a quick foul or two. Total defensive breakdown and then done with an injury. I'm confident Phil is done with him... let the team get used to him not playing.

From what I've seen JR don't care where hes at on the court. He'll shoot from anywhere. Hes got some antoine walker in his blood.

Not a Knicks fan, but I have a minor rooting interest in them.

I've always said Knicks fans deserve a true superstar after what they've been through, as opposed to a guy like Melo, but Smith is a much bigger problem.

Over-inflated ego, breaks out of the offense too frequently, heat checks even when he's ice cold from the floor, etc. Needs to embrace his place as a role player for his team to get value out of him.

He's a good 6th man trying to be a superstar. Couldn't agree with you more.
