      It was the major play that was included in the Kardashian playbook. Cavs had a terrible run ever since it got to their system. It was LeBron’s greatness that kept holding it from spreading until he decided to leave with his immunity pass and since then, the Cavs fired two head coaches made so many trades in hopes of a sustainable tanking project.

    Still never forget how he came alive in game 6 of the 2015 finals. Man was literally turned into steph that day

    He’s a meme all over the internet, but we can’t forget this guy is a bucket.

    Crazy thing is, most of these highlights are in pressure, breakdown situations. So people need to stop talking shit about this man. Give him that "respeck" 💯%

    the best highlight of J.R smith's career is the Game 1 of 2018 finals last seconds of regulation 😂😂

    His game 7 against the Warriors in the 3rd is hugely underrated

    Lifetime Cavs fan here. I can firmly say that all of OHIO is extremely happy that J.R is back in the NBA. This guy deserves another ring. Wish it was on the Cavs but Swish will forever be a Cavs Legend

    Jr Smith was a bucket for the other team all those turnovers and missed shots.. James winston of the NBA

    Man! Newfound respect for J.R. Swish! Hope lakers put up a good fight against the clippers in the finals, though respect is due to the bucks and portland could be a surprise contender also. Love the pelicans, golden state is amazing though bad, Brooklyn has potential, for the next season. Damn you Covid! Love to all, keep safe, protect your loved ones by protecting yourself.
