Not sure if I see Hypocrisy here or a coach making a Principally Wise Stand

Don't go for the hype.


"The wonderful thing about J.R., and the beauty about his play this year, is even when he has struggled, he has always been able to come through in clutch situations. And that says a lot. He's not scared to take the big shot."

Those are not the words of a coach about to give a valuable player a quick hook.

"Godammit JR, get back
...!" Is more like it.

Defense

once a knick always a knick

If JR puts up another 3-15 game, you have to start cutting his minutes. We just cannot afford having him shoot that badly. He needs to drive more and stop taking the off-balance 3s. Play 4 seconds or less offense, either drive, take a quick shot if it is open, or pass to the next man. He needs to stop all of the top of the key dribbling.
Trust the Process

the headline: J.R. Smith might see less time
In the actual story:
It doesn't appear as if a reduction in Smith's playing time is imminent.

I love the press. They sell cheap clicks like a 2 dollar ho at quitting time on payday.

We are winning with defense, ladies and gentleman. Historic levels of defense, and spare me all that unforced turnover garbage. Woody enjoys setting his twin dobermans and the two painfully intelligent old pug PGs loose on the bad guys. 30-2 runs are not born of 5 professionals forgetting where the little round hole is.

Keep your head down JR, and get the eff back on D! The rain will come!
