Knicks' Anthony talks Smith

We're almost at the NBA's mid point and the New York Knicks are still dominating the NBA's new cycle.  With the recent antics/fine of G J.R. Smith, many wondered if the NBA veteran would ever mature.  Recently Knicks F Carmelo Anthony indicated that Smith has gotten the message.

“We have numerous talks,’’ Anthony said. “Me and J.R. talk sometimes all day and night. Certain situations, you have to open your eyes and look yourself in the mirror and say, ‘It’s time to change myself. Everyone else is giving me chances and everybody else wants me to change. If I’m not changing myself, it’s irrelevant.....I think this is a situation that opened his eyes up. He looked at himself in the mirror, hopefully, and said he wants to change, he’s got to change.  It’s up to him now.”
