    Man does this kid have potential. He's easily comparable to Gerald Green. Skills, but not the brightest kid.

    15-25 shooting
    8-14 3's

    JR Smith has proven way more than Gerald Green thus far and there's no comparison (right now). I always liked JR smith... he reminded me a bit of Kobe when he first came out. Too bad JR is a knuckle head.

    I think Jrs been more up and down than Gerald Green. JR must have given Byron Scott hypertension and I think thats what he's doing with George Karl.

    As Jeff Van Gundy would say, he needs to learn how to bend his knees and play defense. :) IT's No good scoring 43 if the guy you're defending scores 37

    It might as well be JR scores 15 and Gordon scores 10. If you score 43, you should dominate your matchup.

    Damn. I hope I started him.


    I saw him at Fonde this year. He and Josh Smith started exchanging baskets. It was pretty awesome.

    Whoa. I was GG had that kind of potential. Half that potential. GG can jump. I know horses that can jump.

    I don't think GG is all that comparable to JR at all. JR has a 3pt shot. GG is just a dunker.

    JR Smith is hot lately. Nothing unusual. Since Smith has been with the Nuggets, Smith has some hot stretches and then he disappears for good.
