J.R. Smith was traded from the New York Knicks to the Cleveland Cavaliers so it was only a matter of time until someone asked him the differences between playing with Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James. Smith always keeps it real and honest, so see what he had to say.
via Ethan J. Skolnick of Bleacher Report:
JR Smith on leadership: “Melo is more of an ‘I’ll show you,’ as opposed to Bron is more of an ‘I’ll tell you, then I’ll show you.”
It seems like LeBron is a better leader, which most people would say anyway considering both his and Anthony’s histories. Smith appears to be playing well and fitting in just fine with the Cavaliers; we’ll just have to see if it lasts.
