JR Smith rumor

SOURCE: Phil Jackson has placed JR Smith on the trading blocks. Kings and Bucks drawing interest.

DYST Now @DYST_Now · 23h
Targets that Phil Jackson is going after from the Kings and Bucks for JR Smith are Jason Thompson, Carl Landry and Ersan Ilyasova.

Not sure if this source is in any way reputable but doesn't seem to make sense with our direction, which means it makes total sense. Complete knucklehead but if swapped for Landry, wouldn't be the end of the world. Until Cousins chokes him to death of course.

Maybe it's confused intel from a three-team deal (remember when they thought there was a Jimmer deal with Toronto?). Kings get Ilyasova, Knicks get Thompson, and Bucks get Smith.

Edit: works under the trade machine! http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=o3865ry

Hmmm doesn't sound good for the future of Ben in sacramento.

Digging around a little more Knicks fans say he frequently has bs rumors

I found this on JR Smith's Wikipedia page:

On April 27, 2013, Smith was suspended for Game 4 of the first round of the playoffs after elbowing the Celtics' Jason Terry in the chin.[24]

That might explain a lot. We're looking at him to solve a different problem.

Interesting....talented knucklehead....talk about a chucker.

 

[Big Cuz 15]

o lord. if it means landry is gone. go for it.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Smith won't come here. They won't bring anyone in, who is the opposite of what they're trying to do with the "culture"

 

[Bricklayer]

Look, putting no stock in this rumor at all...

HOWEVER, it should be noted that J.R. could effectively end up as an ending contract. There are 2 years left, but the second year is a player option, and with his ego, and at his age, he could easily end up opting out to go test the market and try to get something longer while he still can.

 

[Fear the Putin]

**** you Phil

 

[KingMilz]

I think I would actually miss Thomas if this occured, JR is a legit moron I rather just let Styleskas and Ben do there thing.

 

[King Baller]

Just say no to JR.

 

[Big Cuz 15]

p@tchwork by the FO. stunt the growth on their 2 lottery shooting guards. good job. smh

IF.... IF... they unload landry in the exchange. i'll retract my comment.

 

[Heuge]

JR would be easier to move then Jason Thompson. Sign me up.

 

[kingsboi]

I'm not sure in who's eyes bringing JR Smith to this team would make any beneficial sense. What happened to culture change? How about ridding ourselves of low IQ and chucking ball players? So he expires one year earlier than JT...big deal. I'm willing to keep him around if that's the best we can get.

 

[TonyTouch21]

Confusing rumor. A 3 way could be a little beneficial for Illyasova and JR to Bucks? I don't think I'm thrilled, but might could improve our finances. ?

You know, lots of rumors turn out to be rumors and not actually true. Maybe you should keep your head still until something actually happens.

PDA said he wanted to add a shotblocker or a stretch 4 right?
Why not both?

Kings get: ~$18,9M
Ilyasova (from Bucks)
Sanders (from Bucks)

Knicks get: ~$6M
Thompson (from Kings)

Bucks get: ~$18,8M
Williams (from Kings)
Landry (from Kings)
JR Smith (from Knicks)

[randymoss1881]

Mother of god if we trade for this guy I am done.

I'd be happy, and we'd win more games.

This. I can't imagine that we would ever take on JR Smith. He's so universally disliked that it would be a bad PR move. It would also stunt the growth of Nik and Ben.

 

[Albatros]

just pretending this is a legit story, I assume this would happen if Ben was moved. Absolutely can't stand watching this guy though would be a very hard move to get behind.

You know the real crazy part of that trade? Hollinger's Analysis says Rajon Rondo and Josh Smith would result in -2 wins for the Kings.
