They just don't come rolling in next day gliding in on a fucking hover board.

At least he hasn't jetted off to the south yet. He played golf at Firestone in Akron today. The guy is a golf fiend. Heard from a couple of different sourcess that he played 36 holes on the Wednesday between Game 3 and Game 4.
I'm all aboard bringing him back next year though. Hopefully he takes to heart how he performed during the finals and works harder this offseason on his game. To me, he's just not a guy that thrives being the focus on the team. I believe he is more suited to the 6th man/hot scorer (pun intended) role. I think Klay's length really affected his ability to get his shot off during the finals. Any reason not to believe that LeBron wouldn't still want him here? I don't think so. Just my 2 cents.
I still think he plays better as a starter instead of trying to create his shot.
He wasn't trying to create his shot because he was coming off the bench. He was trying to create his shot because his jumper wasn't falling and he was the next best person, beside LBJ, that could somewhat create offense for himself.
Some people just don't understand basketball... JR and Shump performed poorly because they were forced out of there natural roles due to injuries. They are good as 3rd and 4th options on offense, not as top options. JR is not a 2nd scorer, he is a catch and shoot type of guy... He had to do more off the dribble against the Warriors in an expanded role without Kyrie. Him being forced to be a #2 option threw him off his game, and you could see SHump was just uncomfortable on offense being a top option. JR is a hell of a 4th option, and will be great on this team for the next few years. Love JR, can't wait to have him back. Don't forget the only reason we were in the finals is because JR balled out and hit clutch shots against the Bulls and averaged 18 and 10 against Atlanta in the ECF. Some "fans" turn on their own guys the moment they struggle when really that's when you should be supporting them the most.
