1. More motivation for his next payday
2. He would be great to package in a trade when Shump is ready to be the 2nd option.

In JR's defense (seems as if no one else will go to bat for him) he did have a viral infection and fluid on the knee. If this is true, I respect him for not making excuses.

Injury and illness is one thing.

The constant partying and clubbing in the middle of a playoff run is another thing.

.R. Smith was seen out at Greenhouse nightclub [following Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers, resulting in a win: 79-105] in support of Pop songstress Rihanna’s MAC Lipstick release party. Rihanna’s new “RiRiWoo” red lip has been flying off the online and in store shelves and needless to say girls are losing all chill to have another piece of Rih’s look.
J.R. took to his to Twitter showing all his followers how much fun he was having in the club just a few nights ago, immediately following Game 1 of the New York Knicks versus Indiana Pacers. His shortcomings played a huge role in the loss the Knicks left with after game 1 against the Pacers so comments flew — beginning with blaming his missed shots and poor focus during the game on his heavy drinking, and long nights in clubs.

these were taken during the playoffs???

Yeah, they were during the post-season.
There were rumors he was doing cocaine too but they may be completely false.
