Dont put too much into 1 game. Anthony Johnson dropped 40 in a game once too, a playoff game no less.

I agree with that, but this guy has always been really talented. His problem his he is tough to coach, and doesn't always give 100% effort. He could be a star easily.

I got "A guy" in the league in Miami. Was a coach on a summer team with JR.

Especially in the Summer when coaching is low, or non existant, this kid ruled the league he said at the age of 19. My guy knows NBA ball better than most coaches. One of the best at breaking down video.

So called my guy after the game and said the kid is starting to get some control, but to have that kind of weapon coming off the bench can just be awesome.

His drives last night was what impressed me and the shooting was alot of one on one, when he made his own shot and shot over guys, versus a wide open look.

I am also very aware of alot of off the court issues with the guy and that is why Paxson kept him for less than 48 hours. Paxson knew what the kid was about. Just wish he considered how good of a player he had. Pax just didn't want the headache he figured would be coming.

That was a great game to watch last night. JR Smith and Ben Gordon were both hitting a lot of 3's, Nocioni was hitting some as well.....Denver kept cutting that lead, thanks mostly to Smith, fun game!

ABA or semi pro game. Weak D, but definitely lots of fun. Plus the Bulls actually won.

Just think if the Bulls kept Smith back in the day.......and maybe Pargo too.

Ah yes... if we just had Jannero Pargo and JR Smith all our problems would be solved.

Pargo, JR Smith, Ben Gordon on the same team, occasionally in the same rotation even.
Yep. All our problems would be solved. Just for kicks it would be interesting to see an all-offense zero fundamentals team. Maybe Adelman or Doug Moe as coach. Eddie Curry back as the center.

At least for this year, the record wouldnt be that much worse than we have now.
