Of course, JR is simply another spoiled, gifted, problematic, playground baller who only cares about the money.

Playing close to home is irrelevant. His coaches handling means nothing. He could care less about his teammates because it begins and ends with him and him alone.

He ignores the support and adulation of the Garden.

Winning means absolutely nothing to him.

We get it.

Rock me, I'm a danish!

Apparently the AnswerMan is not seeing the contents of the minds of our Starphucque and mini-Starphucque-like-walk on via the jumbotron during each game, like all good Sombers can.

See how poster's here, CHANGE the POINT OF YOUR POST, and TWIST IT TO SOMETHING ELSE
You are just saying how much JR is penetrating off the dribble and attacking the rim
Part of the reason why I do not like to post here as often....

I think JR is trying is best to consistently trying to get easier basket's and is mimicking some of Harden's moves as a student of the game
He is understanding that isn't about trying to get a basket and IF he is able to hit the shot or not

BUT

realizes how only Felton/Smith/ and now a healthier Iman has the ability to penetrate, which create's good shots or sets things up for his team mates with a wide open look or a step

And he's done this before...Lody Freakin DA!!!!

Yes, but these past few games he is scoring efficiently, not by taking an ungodly amount of shots.

Not that concerned about next yr, I'm excited about this season right now and the playoffs for the NEW YORK KNICKS. He just told Jamal Crawford to move over to 2nd place in the 6th man of the year award.

JR wants to be here, although his agents phone wasn't ringing off the hook this summer, he surely could have gotten more else where.

Also a 10 yr vet isn't looking to go to some rebuilding team (which are the only teams that have $ to give him)..Remeber he had the choice to play with the clippers when he came back from china..Im also positive he will be a starter next season if he stays..

He simply is getting closer to the rim.

Fascinating.
