JR Smith

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
He hit him hard enough that Jae Crowder's leg buckled under. It was like a damn knockout punch.

Just look at how vicious his head snaps. Really have a hard time believing we'll see JR in the next round.
 
i agree and i'm not really upset about it because i don't think the Cavs can beat the Bulls without Love (i expect him to be out for a while) anyway.
Pretty amazing how overrated the Bulls are every year. LeBron isn't going to lose a playoff series to a team led by a player as dumb as Derrick Rose.
 
That video is just so damning. Looks worse and worse every time I see it. It just wasn't a natural movement. He wound up and swung with what looked like a closed fist. You're kidding yourself if you don't think he's getting suspended for multiple games.

fist wasn't closed
 
FUCK. He's been a reliable defender for us and helps make our 3 point shooting game go. The Moz/LeBron at PF/JR/Shump/Kyrie lineup looked really nice out there.

Without Love and JR, our entire offense changes as those two take 12 threes a game between them.

Best case scenario is that he's only suspended one game. Time for Mike Miller and the Matrix to rise from the dead.
 
Hit him so hard he broke his leg.

On the nba for encouraging this shit. The right thing to do would be to let him play andnot lpenalize the Cavs two starters for their bs antics
 
Chuck Norris is trying to figure out how you can "No look backhanded bitch slap" someone "Intentionally" without eyes in the back of your head.

Just because his back is turned doesn't mean he doesn't know Crowder is there. Several people seem to be of this belief that these guys have a complete lack of spatial awareness. Maybe he didn't intend to hit him in the face, but he did. He swung his arm, hard, and connected to the face of Crowder. The NBA isn't going to look at it and say, "Well, he probably wasn't trying to hit him in the face." No, they'll see him clock Crowder in the face. He's suspended. No ifs, ands or buts.

I absolutely loved seeing JR knock the shit out of Crowder. But c'mon dude. JR knew what he was doing. The intent was incredibly clear on his part. The surprising part is just how well he connected despite not looking. He is probably looking at being suspended 2-3 games. Especially being a repeat offender in the fine department over the years.
 
I really don't think it was that bad. Smith totally tried to whack him, but it wasn't like a thrown elbow. I dunno, it seemed dumb, but not that bad to me. Sad Crowder's leg crumpled that was not good.

The Perk foul was worse IMO. I think we could be looking at 2 suspensions.
The Smith whack was way worse. Perkins gave Crowder a Karl Malone screen. Perk at worst gets one game, and that would be because of the shove/finger point that hit Crowder's face. But I am not complaining at all. Seeing Crowder get knocked out and carried out of the building was better than porn for me. Olynk deserved it more, but Crowder has been asking for it all series.
