J. R. Smith says LeBron is still mad about the 2018 NBA Finals play
βI got the rebound. I'm thinking we're going to call a timeout because at that point the game is possessionalβ
βI'm thinking, okay, bet. We're not about to rush. We're going to get the best shot possible. Any other time, you get the rebound, call timeout, get it to your best player and let them make the playβ
βI didn't hear no whistle. So I'm like, alright, shit I'm going to take this bitch to the corner. Let me get some space. KD's seven foot. I ain't about to shoot over this dude when he right here, you trippβnβ
βLet me get to the corner. Nobody still say nothing. I'm like, βAlright, bet.β It looked like they were trying to deny LeBron. So I'm dribbling it out to get the ball to LeBronβ
βLike, bro, if I shoot this shit they going to be mad as fuck. You shoot this shit they going to be like, βWell, we going to live and die with thatββ
βSo for me, let me get this shit out of here. Get it to the big fella. He's going to do what he's got to do. Worst comes to worst, we got a timeout. I'm not going to call timeout because then it's, βMan, you wasted our timeoutββ
βHe was hot. He was confused because he didn't understand what is happening. And I'm literally looking at him like, Bro, this is your job. That's why you get the big bucks. They don't pay me enough for this shitβ
