If we had J.R. Smith - would he be a good ASSet ?

I couldn't resist by the thread title. He got fined by the NBA a total of 25k. Would he be the bad boy of the Blazers if we did trade for him earlier in the season?

New York Knicks guard J.R. Smith has been fined $25,000 by the NBA for posting "inappropriate pictures" on his Twitter account, the league announced Saturday night.

Smith posted a picture of a semi-nude woman on his account late Thursday night.

He told reporters in Milwaukee on Friday night that he regretted the tweet.

"I didn't know it was going to be as big a deal as it is now," Smith told reporters on Friday. "I definitely regret it. Anytime I do anything that takes away from our team, I'm definitely going to regret it."

Smith appears to have eventually deleted the post but that didn't stop the photo from being passed around the Internet on Friday, earning significant attention that included a mention on the sports website Deadspin.

The woman that he tweeted is supposedly Tahiry Jose.

He didn't break a law, did he? That's stupid.

Its probably because of Stern's public relations clause, thats hidden in NBA contracts. He doesn't want players too look like Pimps or Players.

Every player has to dress like Stern and act like Stern or he'll fine them.
