2268300, Nah, I'm not blaming JR Smith for anything.

JR is what he is. He's not a very good basketball player.
I don't hate him for that. He gave the Knicks his very
best last year, and it was good at times. But he's not a
meaningful basketball player on a good team.

And JR Smith's contract proves my point: he cost himself
tens of millions of dollars with his playoff performance
and had NO SUITORS outside of the Knicks. Zero. Nobody
wanted him.

>melo's contract and skill set says he actually has to be a
>cornerstone building a team that good, but he fucked that up.

He led a team to a #2 seed, losing to a very good Pacer team
in the plaoyffs. That is a "good team." He did it without the
actual franchise player (going by salary, Amare Stoudemire is)
and an injured Tyson Chandler. He did his part.

No player, Lebron included, gets the Knicks past Indiana
in the playoffs last year.

And I'm not gonna let you forget that you said JR Smith is
as good as Lance Stephenson. ZERO coaches, GMs would take
JR over Born Ready. None.
