He the scapegoat for a series they had no chance of winning. Let’s talk about what he did do 2016 nba finals JR rattles of 9 straight points to give Cleveland the lead in the 3rd Quarter. JR hustled back on defense to alter Iggy shot giving Lebron the opportunity to get his famous block Put some respect on his name that one play won’t define his career
People only recognize Jr Smith's mistakes and not his accomplishments. He was a huge help in their 3-1 comeback. The man rained 3's and played decent defense.
No averaging 6 points for 2 years in a row in nearly 30 minutes is gonna get him out the league this league is about what your doing now and Jr has been trash for 2 years in a row now.
Omar Lee exactly . I’m still shocked is even on a team . You can’t tell me there’s not 1,000 players all over the world, who could take his spot right now .
That hoodie argument was more about JR being disappointed about being benched...but JRs numbers after that comment was bad...they lost to the Knicks...nuff said
Chewkie 420 yes it’s a thing. This is my first time trying it and honestly I don’t have much of it I can take. Thankfully I’m working and going to school full time so I’m constantly busy.
JR will absolutely be remembered for that finals play. it wont define his career and it wont be the first thing people talk about but it will come up. the cavs were expected to get swept and CLEARLY were gonna steal game 1, no i dont think that changes things in the end but one of the worst finals teams of all time just stole a game from the best finals team ever in their own building?!?! come on now that wouldve meant a hell of a lot to the basketball world. lets also not forget that game 2 was a very close game until the end, and game 3 they had a chance to win and ended up only losing by 9. Jr (and george hill) ruined that finals. they had a chance to easily make that a 6 game series and that play depleted them mentally and emotionally and it’s overwhelmingly apparent.
Yeah, that would have been a greater moral victory than the Warriors winning the title(those are more or less empty now anyway). Winning that game also would have cemented Lebron's legacy after that historic playoff run. Usually it's Lebron being the cause of his problems in those moments, but this time it was someone else. That's why it was so tragic
Dennis Walker Wrong Cavs winning game 1 wouldve meant nothing. GSW lost 5 playoff games before that, including to injured pelicans. And Houston couldve beat GSW but injury happen. GSW=most talented, yet still finds ways to lose
@Black Minoan that made no sense. Why would he hate her for being Jalen's wife? Its prob because she moderates less and interrupts SAS and Max all the time. I dont mind her having an opinion but wait your turn or in the end after the debate concludes.
Exactly. She makes Cari Champion seem like the greatest moderator ever and when she was on First Take many people were annoyed by her talking a bit too much. But Molly cannot go one second without screaming, interrupting or just making a foolish comment. We get it, you're there but come on now. Let the men debate and interrupt when it's necessary.
It’s not fair that that’s the first thing you think of when thinking of JR. But that’s the first place my brain naturally goes when thinking of him & it goes that way for a lot of people too. Just that fact alone will always hurt him, like it or not.
It's funny how a player like javale mcgee been 1 of the nba laughing stocks for many yrs particularly due to shaq funny videos, but is probably the most consistent laker right now!!!😎 So JR. smith absolutely still have the chance to finish his career as a good respected, productive player!!!✊
TjRich No doubt, but the point is he's productive in the right system, i can't believe how crazy people are, if they really believe JR. smith career is over, based on 1 bad play!!!
JR's the fall guy, especially with his Finals meltdown to cover up LeBron and Dan Gilbert's relationship never improving, trading Kyrie away when everybody felt 'iffy' about it, not declining the trade when it first fell through, the firing of Tyronn Lue when everybody knew that was going to happen if the Cavs started off bad, letting David Griffin walk when he was loved by everyone, and Gilbert letting it be known that he's ready to take his team back. It's a damn shame.
That’s stupid to say. That’s like saying Chris Webber’s whole career was ruined by that time out call. Athletes makes mistakes in the game that was not a mistake that ruined his future in the NBA.
Legod is the best ever Some Legends gots no rings no the he'll he wasn't you part of the fake news problem y'all mothafuckas dumb and keep niggaz like Trump winning Stupid have a mind of your own dummy
Jr was a beast back then, destroying ankles and rims, with crossovers and nasty dunks. This is how I will remember Jr. He was beasting with the Nuggets and then the Knicks.
SAS...you need some sleep. Cavs got swept...Losing 1 game doesn’t decide the NBA finals...it’s best of 7. This 1 play WILL NOT define JR Smith’s career. HOWEVER, this segment does define how salty you are STILL about JR calling you out on twitter for your ridiculous statements about him wearing a hoody.
How can Max say they had 0 chance? They had the Warriors on the ropes in Game 1 at Oracle Arena. Had George Hill made his 2nd free throw or JR not forgot the score the Cavs would've been in a better position than they were in the Finals before with Kyrie
If you judge jr smith off that 1 play..you dont watch much basketball..jr isnt an all star..but he is a solid role player..look back at the finals highlights when the cavs beat the warriors..jr was draining threes all series
He absolutely will be remembered for that play. It was a boneheaded play, on national TV, at an extremely crucial time. Were the Cavs gonna win the series? Probably not, but sometimes the game is about momentum, and if they steal game 1 in Oakland, who knows what might've happened. But JR's play destroyed all hope.
It is UNBELIEVABLE that people are just ignoring that George Hill missed the game winning freethrow. A FREE throw. Noone guarding him. NO ONE in his face.
But are we gonna forget the fact that is hill made the freethrow the warriors could still steal the game with 4.7 seconds in play Are we gonna forget the fact that the call reversal should'nt have happened in the first place
Yeah, but the Warriors would have had a ton of time to hit the game winning shot and all they needed was a deuce. Plenty of time to set up an easy mid-range jumper for Durant or a shot for Klay and we all know Curry can shoot from anywhere on the court. Or they could go strong to the basket and then get a putback even if they missed. Hill missing that FT actually worked out better for the Cavs, but Smith screwed it all up by not being aware of the situation.
Stephen A is right. You only remember some players, like Nick Anderson missing free throws, Jordan pushing off Russel, Jordan shot over Ehlo. No one remembers Anderson, Russell, or Ehlo's careers.
Even though GSW would have gone on to win regardless that play and the missed free throw ruined a great performance in the finals on the road and what would have been a much more entertaining series...
No it's not... George Hill didn't get the rebound and run out the clock because he didn't know the score. Him missing the free throw is a completely separate thing.
@@lb0433 yes. Missing an important free throw is not one of the most all-time bone headed plays. Running out the clock in a finals game thinking that you won when you didn't is.
One thing people will remember though is that the Cavs had a chance of taking game 1 away from the Dubs. Never mind the rhetoric of the Cavs not winning the series, they had a chance to avoid being sweeped in the finals. That's the legacy JR Smith is most likely gonna be remembered for quite a while in and around the league.
Stephen A doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He’s actually creating that narrative by just saying that. Few people just look at JR for that mistake. The media is just something I tell you
That's crazy Jr has done alot of great things regardless of his mistakes he's been a hell of a player he's just not in his prime anymore he's getting old and better players are entering the NBA. The rest of his future in the NBA shouldn't be based on that mistake he made in game 1 they were never going to win the finals anyways come on now stop hating on this man
Jr made one of the biggest plays in that Finals, Grabbing the Offensive board over KD ! If Kd grabs it the Warriors got 5+ seconds to win in regulation. The Whole Cavs team should’ve known they had a Timeout and more importantly Ty Lue should’ve called it !
I know this is a different topic but just like JR is hurt by that game 1 blunder. I feel like Tyron Lue will feel the effects as well, because for you Lebron to question if they had a time out or not, that means the coach Lue didn’t prepare the team coming out of the time out before the free throw and he surely didn’t try to call the timeout either from the bench. Lue is just as responsible for that L as is JR.
That’s life. People will hold things against you in life and you just have to fight through it. Is it unfair? Yes. I think that it shouldn’t be held against him and that he should be able to get a chance with another team but it probably will not happen.
I agree with SAS, once a mistake is made it is definitely hard to recover from it especially if it’s a final of match.... if anyone watch soccer(football) same thing is with Karius(former Liverpool GK)...... mistake in a final it is always hard to comeback from. It tarnish your image
@@basketballenlightenment2863 ive been watching basketball since the 90s jr smith was Michael Beasley without the talent nobody wanted him and nobody wants him now don't rewrite history cuz he got a ring lol,
Reminds me of the Nick Anderson deal when he missed 4 straight free throws in the Finals. It haunted him the rest of his career and affected his playing, since he lost his confidence.
Everybody always rips lebron for leaving cleveland but the fact of the matter is he never got another player. Mj got scottie in his fourth season. Kobe got shaq in his fourth season. Timmy D came into the league with david robinson. Lebron got boobie gibson. If lebron drafted into a capable team and a big city like miami or la. He couldve been the goat
Ruined him to have gotten an offensive rebound and forced overtime in a series where they had no real chance of winning, largely due to LeBron acting like the GM and coach of the team.
Duncan Pinderhughes You don’t know anything about the cavs or LeBron james if you think LeBron James and those cavs would have lost game 3 with a tied series. They would have been up 2-1 still in Cleveland where lebrons pathetic surrounding cast played like somewhat of a semblance of a basketball team and lost 1 time in the playoffs.
Max is literally proving stephen a's point more ...saying they had a 0% chance to beat the warriors, yes thats what everyone thought but lebron came out and dropped 51 in the finals and was on pace to steal a game 1 in golden state and jr ruined it... people will forever be wondering what would of happened if they stole a game 1 on the road against the warriors. Therefore will always remember jr by that one play that coud of been...
SwaqaSwerve24 could of would of should of they had five mins of ot they could not get it done get over it the king quit on this team for the second time....and got swept.......so their...
Cleveland fans should respect JR, it's time for them to part ways but he was clutch in their 2016 championship run, hope he's remembered for that than his 2018 gaffe.
Firstly, we'll remember JR for the being the athletic, 3 and D, third option when he was on that Nuggets squad behind Melo & A.I. in the 2007-2008 regular season, secondly for replacing an injured Rudy Gay in the dunk contest and being somewhat entertaining and thirdly, being a perimeter addition to the Cavs along with his favoured combination of Henny/Marijuana which ultimately contributed toward his superb fuck up in Game #1 of the 2018 NBA Finals. #Facts
No the media ruined that man future. The media had too much influence on alot of things today. That is why I don't watch a lot of shows where there are people that has their own opinion. I watch what's going on and evaluate it myself. Too much bias in television
So i guess espn and the nba made that same famous meme of Lebron yelling at jr and post it on the internet too. This guy did something that was stupid and on one of the biggest sport events in front of millions. He gave people ammo, he did this to himself.
..he's good enough for a scrappy team that could use a wildcard streaky type, he's kinda like Lance Stevenson. I'd like to see him reunite w/ Shump out in Sacramento, that's a perfect fit.
The media is making Jr the scapegoat for LeBron he went and got an OFFENSIVE rebound why wasn't LeBron down there instead of Smith to get the rebound and score if Jr didn't get that rebound the warriors would have and they would have either lost or gone to overtime
@@louwill2156 ur excuse for LeBron not grabbing a rebound is because he was playing defense that's ur excuse not the 6'8 250lbs of muscle that could get the rebound and score or get fouled and win the game damn y'all LeBron apologist will make any excuse

2016 nba finals JR rattles of 9 straight points to give Cleveland the lead in the 3rd Quarter. JR hustled back on defense to alter Iggy shot giving Lebron the opportunity to get his famous block
Put some respect on his name that one play won’t define his career
Lil Dagga It was Hill fault.His choking ass.Also Lebron droped 51 points on Kd head .
Lil Dagga stfu jr smith choked and is the reason cavs lost
If you watched jr play everything good he does he makes up for it with a mistake
The cavs had 2 games they almost won they at least weren't going to get swept
Jr smith is a bum lmaooooo
People only recognize Jr Smith's mistakes and not his accomplishments. He was a huge help in their 3-1 comeback. The man rained 3's and played decent defense.
Y’all gonna hold this against this man for the rest of career? At least he contributed on the title run he’s a champion
Laker Ludz he destroyed a team single handedly. we didn’t know what the effects of that play would be on that day but now we can see what they are
Silver III they wouldve been dismantled either way because they were never beating the warriors everyone knew they stood no chance
@@ludwinmax18 wouldn't have gotten swept tho
Slytherin's Burner Account who cares a loss is a loss LOL lebron lost to these same warriors 4-1 the year before u think it stings any less
Laker Ludz yes, it was a key play in the NBA FINALS!! That means something
If JR joins LA they'll officially be the shaqtin a Fool All-Star team. JR. Javale. Lance. Lonzo.
Lebron will sets screens for opposing teams too
Jim Bertido Aww man that is funny (Can't stop laughing)......Sounding like announcer: And here is your starting line-up for the Shaq-Fools

Earl Rogers 😂😂😂This comment would get 1K likes if it was first. 💯💪👏
smh who raised you niggas always talking about another person money my dude you must be broke.
Javier Hernandez HE WONT BE BROKE LIKE YOU THO
Lmao damn y’all tryna play on jr like dat y’all down bad lol smh
@Earl Rogers Awwwwww, hell NAW!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm still shaking my head to this day about that damn play.
Jr smith back to the knicks? Sounds good to me
Yea... a ball of shit can stink any worse than it already does lol
no one wants to play for the knicks
Kendall Wixon heck know. Forget that ish
That’s life. People will hold things against you in life and you just have to fight through it. Is it unfair? Yes. I think that it shouldn’t be held against him and that he should be able to get a chance with another team but it probably will not happen.
*Molly you're not you when you're hungry*
The number 1 thing I’m going to remember from Jr Smith’s career is the most powerful two hand poster while on the Knicks
GSW will sign JR. You heard it here first
RiduFly for a half full bottle of henny and some Advil
If that Happens you will see me rooting for the Dubs ! #Facts
You may be on to something
Hah! Could happen...would be something to see if it does
Da warriors got a front row seat at how much of an airhead Jr is so I don't see dat happening!
I agree with SAS, once a mistake is made it is definitely hard to recover from it especially if it’s a final of match.... if anyone watch soccer(football) same thing is with Karius(former Liverpool GK)...... mistake in a final it is always hard to comeback from. It tarnish your image
Jr smith before that play still wasn't known as a great player lol lets not rewrite history .
anthony cheesman you must just started watching basketball
@DATS TUFF lol he was known as a weed head when he was with the Knicks if he's such a great player why did nobody want him
@@basketballenlightenment2863 ive been watching basketball since the 90s jr smith was Michael Beasley without the talent nobody wanted him and nobody wants him now don't rewrite history cuz he got a ring lol,
anthony cheesman did you not see him on the nuggets and knicks? He won six man of the year and was almost a all star in 2012-2013
@@basketballenlightenment2863 yea but nobody took him serious before game 1 when he was with the Knicks he was a joke.
Reminds me of the Nick Anderson deal when he missed 4 straight free throws in the Finals. It haunted him the rest of his career and affected his playing, since he lost his confidence.
Why Couldn't LeBron have himself a Scottie Pippen?
Because there's only one MJ...
@Vaughn reed jr because niggas act like rings are all that matters lmao, bron been playing with the bum ass cavs for like 13 years lmao.
Wade is a top 3 SG of all time. Why did Lebron cost Wade an FMVP and a ring in 2011?
Everybody always rips lebron for leaving cleveland but the fact of the matter is he never got another player. Mj got scottie in his fourth season. Kobe got shaq in his fourth season. Timmy D came into the league with david robinson. Lebron got boobie gibson. If lebron drafted into a capable team and a big city like miami or la. He couldve been the goat
Wade's prime years faded too quick
Ruined him to have gotten an offensive rebound and forced overtime in a series where they had no real chance of winning, largely due to LeBron acting like the GM and coach of the team.
warriors would've won in 5 instead of 4. No one cares about that shit.
Agree
Duncan Pinderhughes You don’t know anything about the cavs or LeBron james if you think LeBron James and those cavs would have lost game 3 with a tied series. They would have been up 2-1 still in Cleveland where lebrons pathetic surrounding cast played like somewhat of a semblance of a basketball team and lost 1 time in the playoffs.
It’s me, Duncan Pincushion....
JrSmith used to be hella rare back in the day don’t forget
Max is literally proving stephen a's point more ...saying they had a 0% chance to beat the warriors, yes thats what everyone thought but lebron came out and dropped 51 in the finals and was on pace to steal a game 1 in golden state and jr ruined it... people will forever be wondering what would of happened if they stole a game 1 on the road against the warriors. Therefore will always remember jr by that one play that coud of been...
People don't understand how hard it is to win at the Oracle and they could have done it. JR and George hill are bums.
SwaqaSwerve24 could of would of should of they had five mins of ot they could not get it done get over it the king quit on this team for the second time....and got swept.......so their...
@@Cochise954 yes
JR will be remembered for his clumsy mistakes yes but he also will be remembered as a champion and a guy who gave back to the community.
No. The media ruined his career. ESPN will blame anyone but Lebron.
KiD Music It WAS his fault
Cleveland fans should respect JR, it's time for them to part ways but he was clutch in their 2016 championship run, hope he's remembered for that than his 2018 gaffe.
Glad you fired Molly.
Molly Qerim-Rose Is Not Fired
Vacation unfortunately.
Man dont get me excited like that, you had me for a second :(
Bruh I was about to celebrate..........
@@TyBaller yeah she talks too damn much.
The Henny got him lit
Anyone here in 2020? Well, Lakers didn't sign him 🤷♂️
Welp... incoming
@@Senza_1 well, hahahahah
Firstly, we'll remember JR for the being the athletic, 3 and D, third option when he was on that Nuggets squad behind Melo & A.I. in the 2007-2008 regular season, secondly for replacing an injured Rudy Gay in the dunk contest and being somewhat entertaining and thirdly, being a perimeter addition to the Cavs along with his favoured combination of Henny/Marijuana which ultimately contributed toward his superb fuck up in Game #1 of the 2018 NBA Finals. #Facts
Low key ruined before that
Who would’ve thought JR would win another ring even if it was cheering from the bench? 😂
No the media ruined that man future. The media had too much influence on alot of things today. That is why I don't watch a lot of shows where there are people that has their own opinion. I watch what's going on and evaluate it myself. Too much bias in television
So i guess espn and the nba made that same famous meme of Lebron yelling at jr and post it on the internet too. This guy did something that was stupid and on one of the biggest sport events in front of millions. He gave people ammo, he did this to himself.
..he's good enough for a scrappy team that could use a wildcard streaky type, he's kinda like Lance Stevenson. I'd like to see him reunite w/ Shump out in Sacramento, that's a perfect fit.
The Cavs had no chance to win the series anyways they get 1 game and get steamrolled 4straight
no one wants to get swept.
Actually they had 2 games
TheOfficialStealz FAX
It was a momentum shift
Agree
Jr can play and he was a very crucial part of that championship in Cleveland.
The media is making Jr the scapegoat for LeBron he went and got an OFFENSIVE rebound why wasn't LeBron down there instead of Smith to get the rebound and score if Jr didn't get that rebound the warriors would have and they would have either lost or gone to overtime
daniel harper u need a safety in defense just in case who you want j.r. or lebron? There goes your answer
@@louwill2156 ur excuse for LeBron not grabbing a rebound is because he was playing defense that's ur excuse not the 6'8 250lbs of muscle that could get the rebound and score or get fouled and win the game damn y'all LeBron apologist will make any excuse
That play from the Finals is like Chris Webber calling a time out when Michigan didn’t have one...it’ll follow him for his life.
