Former Cleveland Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith landing with the Los Angeles Lakers was a win-win for both parties.
Cleveland Cavaliers fans seem to have mixed emotions about J.R. Smith.
Smith seemingly made an awful mistake back in Game 1 of the 2018 NBA Finals versus the Golden State Warriors after securing an offensive rebound and nearly dribbling the clock out and not either getting a shot up, or passing to LeBron James earlier.
George Hill, who missed that free throw unfortunately, ended up throwing up a shot that was an errant one and partially tipped by Draymond Green, and it appeared Smith while didn’t say it post-game, seemed to believe the Cavs until the last split second, were up.
