The struggling Lakers are traveling to Madison Square Garden tonight to take on the red-hot Knicks. That alone is reason enough to stay glued to the TV later on this evening. But, now, there's another reason, too.
Last night, J.R. Smith took to his Twitter account to answer some tweets from fans who were warning him about Kobe coming to the Garden. And, in true J.R. Smith fashion, he used it as an opportunity to respond openly and honestly—maybe a little too honestly—about his thoughts on the Lakers, Kobe's shot selection, and, well, just read some of his responses for yourself:
Yea shots! RT @igetcashandass: @therealjrsmith chill bra kobe def puttin up 40+
Yea wit more losses too! klown RT @mentionjayraw: Kobe 30+ and still avg more EVERYTHING than @therealjrsmith #ChillBro !
Not even close Ws matter more kid! RT @navooo: @therealjrsmith you'd do the same if you could
As if i need your respect! LMFAO RT @thascorpionking: Losing respect for @therealjrsmith since he wants to talk about Kobe now.
Uh-oh. Anyone else think Kobe is gonna drop, like, 80 tonight at the Garden? Apparently, J.R. isn't worried. Because, he ended his tweets last night with this:
Damn. We'll see about that after the game tonight…
