The Cavaliers have all sorts of problems right now. You already know this. If you’ve been paying attention to the NBA at all, you basically can’t avoid the drama. Having watched the NBA for the last few years, you know that they’re still gonna make the Finals somehow, but it’s fun to see how close they get to imploding before pulling themselves together enough to not openly antagonize each other on the court.
But even with all that drama, I haven’t even heard rumors of Cavaliers players calling out J.R. Smith for being such garbage this year. They’ve been calling out Kevin Love who is actually good, why not Smith? He’s getting big minutes, he’s starting every game, he’s getting paid for two more years after this, and he’s just been bad. If I were his teammate, I wouldn’t call him out to his face because I don’t like confrontation, but I’d definitely leave a flyer on the communal bulletin board that said something like “J.R. Smith? More like J.R. Bitch! No one wants you on this team and your brother sucks also.”
Never forget that he somehow got his really, really not even close to NBA-caliber brother an NBA deal once upon a time. That alone is unforgivable, never mind his garbaginess this year.
