No way Smith comes back to Denver.. We dont need another player that cant shoot consistently and that is locked up for 2 more years at too much money… NO THANKS

Smith was NOT part of the Carmelo Anthony deal. HOW DO YOU WRITE A STORY LIKE THIS AND NOT KNOW THAT?! He was playing in China (‘member that whole NBA strike thing?) and Knicks claimed him as a free agent. Clearly Mr. Greg Sulik hails from the Chris Broussard school of sports journalism…a.k.a “JUST MAKE SHIT UP UNIVERSITY”. Pathetic considering one only needs to google JR SMITH and read his damn bio. INEXCUSABLE.
I doubt very much Denver would interested in an older version of the player they let walk.

You’re right, that was a major oversight on my part, but we all make mistakes. Either way, that’s not at all the point of the article. And I say very clearly that I doubt Denver would make the deal, but they’re one of the few teams who might consider it. I also say at the end that there is no evidence about the Knicks trying to trade Smith, so obviously I am simply speculating on what a trade market might look like.
As far as the Melo for Griffin trade goes, everyone is entitled to to their opinion, but look around this site and others and you’ll find I’m far from the only person who has that opinion.

No i got the point of the article Greg…TO DRUM UP WEB TRAFFIC FOR www.RANTSPORTS.COM when people google “JR SMITH TRADE”. That much is obvious.
But it takes a big man to admit an error as egregious as this one. I applaud you sir. I shoulder the blame here as well, I mean it is called Rant Sports for god’s sake…i mean this site makes Bleacher Report look like Le Monde.

ah I see…this is the same Greg Sulik who wrote the story ‘Melo for Griffin Deal Makes Sense for Both Teams’— what is this kid smoking?
