I just don't have a ton of faith in his overall decision making. Wrong was a poor word though... I should of said not ideal choice.

Yes more than the Lakers. Proving that the Clippers CAN outshine the Lakers in the media/public view even in the same city.

Doesn't mean the Lakers don't still have a grip on LA or w/e.... just means publicity isn't an issue. Maybe NY is a slightly better stage with the recent Linsanity explosion that is completely dominating headlines though.

Then again playing with Linsanity.... none of the Knicks players are getting attention. Everyone is focused on Lin specifically. Nobody is talking about how Fields has been breaking out big with Lin next to him.

Linsanity won't last forever.
Even if he continues to play this well people will get used to that after a while.

Knicks players are getting a lot of attention if they play well.
Remember Landry Fields hype last year ?
Or maybe Iman Shumpert hype at the start of the season ?

If J.R.Smith can play well he'll get a lot of attention in NY.

No matter where he goes... he's going to get a much bigger contract after this season. His goal should be to find the best place he can showcase himself to stay long term. An extra million for now won't do much for him.

I thought you could only offer him slightly less than a million.

Still,it's more money.

And there's no better stage to showcase your good play than New York.
Media attention is huge,especially if the Knicks play well.

i was being sarcastic. It JR smith.

And the $1M different is a big deal. It should not be. AT ALL. But it is.

the prophet Niko. No but seriously spot on. I think he will make NY more dangerous... but he's also a player where the veterans on the team need to keep him in check to prevent an implosion.

Lin seems to have brought the Knicks team together so it will work I'm sure. If you added Jr before Linsanity though.... I would have predicted a sh** storm.

We will see you in the finals. It is fated. But only after you slay Kobe and D12 and the Lakers in the western conference finals (and we beat Miami).

ISH will die that day.

I don't even know if I want J.R.Smith.

He's a great bench player but he's also a headcase.

If we can sign him I can just hope he'll fit in well.

Clippers vs Knicks finals would seriously shut ISH down for 24 hours. . People would have went from arguing which franchise is the most pathetic this decade?.... to "Which team is going to win the finals?" in a short period of time. Talk about turnarounds!

I would love to see Knicks-Clippers finals.

Watching Jeremy Lin outplaying CP3 and leading the Knicks to the championships would be something special.
