Message: [QUOTE="OrangeDW, post: 2595251, member: 2458"] In particular, I had in mind JR Smith...remember the whole “Melo doesn’t make his teammates better and LeBron does because he’s a better leader” article/story when he contributed to the Cavs title after crapping the bed in the 2013 playoffs with the Knicks? Is LeBron no longer making him better? Why did he have his best season in NY in 2013(the same year he sucked in the Pacers series)? It’s just overblown IMO. JR Smith has always been JR Smith for better or worse, regardless of whose team he’s on. Blaming/crediting the team’s star when JR does especially good or bad is just too much. [/QUOTE]
