Sixth Man of the Year and long-time headache J.R. Smith hasn’t played well since he elbowed Jason Terry in the mouth and got suspended for one game. Last night, in a postgame interview, Smith took responsibility for his actions — or lack thereof. Video after the jump.

J.R. Smith’s juiced for the playoffs, and he’s expressing it through the classical art of Slam-Dunkery. Truly magnificent. The pipe master is laying it this afternoon off the bench, as the Knicks and Celtics engage in a cat-and-mouse, back-and-fourth type contest. We’ll keep you updated if he tweets or texts something raunchy.

Neither of these names will surprise you, necessarily, but the fact that either one couldn’t pay up for all the swag they acquired is a little ridiculous.

Mike Woodson has been in the fashion news before – there was that time he wore a t-shirt with his own derp face on it, because Mike Wodson is ever frozen in a derp face. But today J.R. Smith passed along this photo, and so we ask, what? White polka dots? Why? At least the shirt’s quite slimming.

Pat Mayo (@ThePME) & Mike Cardano (@MikeCardano) chat about J.R. Smith’s thought process during his game-losing miss against the Thunder. Plus, the guys break down the Knicks’ chances in the East, and whether the Heat should just be given a bye to the finals.

You’re probably here because you didn’t watch sports on TV last night. Which means you hate J.R. Smith. And last night was a bad night to hate J.R. Smith.

Overall, the Knicks had a good night last night. They dominated the Pistons early and cruised to a 99-85 win from there, their fifth straight victory. J.R. Smith, though, didn’t have a banner night… for a couple different reasons.

The Knicks and Nets split their season series after the Nets won at MSG this afternoon, 88-85, but the action didn’t really get going until after the game ended. Kris Humphries will know better than to say anything on Twitter that might illicit reaction from J.R. Smith.

Silly. Just silly. Towards the end of the Knicks’ 100-83 rout of the Spurs last night at the Garden — Gregg Popovich had pulled his aging starters at this point, so the game was sewn up — Pablo Prigioni found J.R. Smith for… whatever this was. The pass didn’t even look like it was meant to be an alley-oop, and Prigioni later acknowledged he threw it too low, but for the bundle of tatted-up fast-twitch muscle fibers that is J.R. Smith, it only made the moment more YouTubeable.
