Last week, ESPN blowhard Stephen A. Smith went on an absurd rant about why J.R. Smith shouldn’t wear a hoodie on the bench because it would remind white people about Trayvon Martin.
And in Game 1 when they played against Boston, J.R. Smith was sitting on the bench in the fourth quarter with a hoodie on. I don’t know why the hell Nike made these damn uniforms that have hoods attached to it, by the way. You got a lot of those white folks in the audience that’s gonna think this is Trayvon Martin being revisited. And I’m not joking about it. The bench is no place for somebody to be wearing hoodies.
Today, J.R. Smith fired back at Stephen A. over his hoodie comments.
This man is always reaching. What does me wearing my Hoodie on the bench have anything todo with reminding “white people” of #trayvon
