the only thing apparent in the shots he takes is his low bball iq which is the same thing that is starting to be apparent in your posts

You just don't get it. You're equating his shot selection to his IQ, which is flawed.
However, you're ignoring JR's myriad of long 2's and contested 3's and saying that he could go to the basket, he just doesnt' do it. Just marinate on how silly that sounds.
I don't know if JR has even been a consistent driving threat in the league, but you think he can be? Based on something we haven't seen? Yeah ok, but my IQ in these post though

True I'd still stick with that, wouldn't let them trap at all till the 4th in hopes of that extra pass to Barnes. Make him stay on the wing for a shot. They'd all have to D up like Delly, but they'll probably be too gassed for offense tho......lmao not looking good for
He has the skill tho, just lacks the hunger or muscle memory has him doing the stepback. So glad he's out of NY.
Do remember when he was a knick doing this or dishing it out, but knew it wasn't going to be a consistent thing. He'd rather look pretty and win.

JR Smith can get to the rim and create his own shot

It's not like they stink and don't belong in the NBA at all. Some of these guys can be effective NBA players in lesser roles. It's not their fault, but due to the circumstances right now, they're in roles that they're not suited for and are in way over their heads. None of these non-LeBron players are cut out to be a #2 or #3 option on offense on a successful team.

Lebron should have anticipated that playing in Cleveland would never end well

Especially on a winner, he's not good enough to be a feature because he can't beat anyone off the dribble, which is why you see the jumpshots that he takes. But a few drives and that means he can?
The bottomline is he doesn't do it. How do you even measure "hunger" or muscle memory"?

Remember when JR was known well at least for me being a dunker, with a streaky shot.
Now he's just a streaky shooter.

yea cause your overlooking his lack of iq. u think one of the best athletes on the floor can't get to the rim?

he even showed it a little in game 2 on his first two baskets
clearly has the ability but since everything in the cavs offense now has to run through lebron for some reason he is relegated to jacking up threes and the contested twos he loves so much

By not attempting to drive to the hole and creating.
I guess you can just say he lacks urgency or doesn't have Bball IQ. Shrugs

watching JR for the last 4 years he definitely has the ability to get to the rim. whether he has the focus to do so that night is a differet story.
his best season (2012) he was constantly getting to the basket drawing fouls, kicking out to the open man, laying it off to the big man, etc. he's an underrated playmaker that settles for the jumper far too often.
