Quote:
J.R. Smith declined his $2.4 million option with the New York Knicks Tuesday, making him a free agent July 1.

Smith's decision clears him to test free agency and be eligible for a 20 percent raise based on his $2.382 million salary from this past season.

The New York Times first reported the story, citing an anonymous source.

That would be a great move for the Heat. Better than Ray Allen, even.

Heard he intends to sign a multi-year deal with NYK, that's why he declined the option.

I still don't like his game. Too inconsistent. Not conducive to a winning strategy. Yes, some games he can bury the opponent with hot shooting but you cant count on him to contribute in a positive way.

It will be moronic for NYK to sign him a multi-year deal.

Guy came off bench chucked up 10-15 shots, made 1/3 of them and did nothing else.

Useless.

Yeah he's not worth more money.
Lin is easily worth more and the guy actually delivered.
Even Novak did more than Smith did.

Isn't this what he planned to do when he was released from his China team to sign a mini contract in March with the Knicks. I thought everyone considered this a foregone conclusion.

He's not going anywhere, unless the Knicks don't want him. This is just how he maximizes his contract.
