After his untying-opponents-sneaker frenzy and subsequent fine and benching, JR Smith says that he learned his lesson. Who ever would’ve thought that something like that would garner so much attention. Well, it’s regarding the Knicks and JR Smith so there you go.
Smith has apologized for his antics and was surprised at the benching. But according to him, he got the message loud and clear.
“Don’t goof around, I guess. Be serious. Be a professional. And just don’t take this opportunity here you have for granted,” he said. “There’s a lot of people in this world that want our jobs. You can’t take it for granted. It can be taken away just that fast.”
