JR is a free agent, but where will he go?

It seems more and more likely that JR Smith won’t be a Denver Nuggets next season. So the question is where and who will he play for next season  when the NBA Lockout is lifted?

Many fans believe he would be the missing piece for Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls, others think he could join the Boston Celtics where Doc Rivers has an ability to limit the craziness in players. However, for Smith to really show his true talent and live up to his potential he needs to play for a team that will live with the good and bad JR and not one that would put him on a short lease, as teams like the Bulls and the Celtics would do. On both teams he would have a similar role as in Denver, where he could easily be benched due to his erratic behavior or receive playing time when he gets hot. That’s the price players pay for playing for Old School head coaches.  (more…)
