J.R. Smith: I Had To Served That Guy Because He Was Destroying My Car And House!

JR Smith told the junk food media, don't blame him for serving a guy who destroyed his property.

NBA star J.R. Smith was caught on camera beating down a white instigator who was there to cause chaos in the wake of the fatal killing of George Floyd.

He was seen on video serving a white man a healthy portion of knuckle style chili.

Born Earl Joseph Smith III is a 6'6'' free agent who is played for the Cleveland Cavaliers and declared free agency in 2019. He was part of the 2016 NBA Champions with LeBron James. He is a small forward and point guard. He is married to Jewel Harris and has two children from her and one from a previous relationship.

He was once mocked by then president Barack Obama for not wearing a shirt.

He is an all around good guy. Just don't piss him off!

On celebrity agitating website TMZ (TMZ Sports), he was caught on Sunday serving a hot plate to a man who allegedly damaged his truck during the protests in Los Angeles over the death of George Floyd.

Smith is seen serving a hot swift kick to the man and then knuckles up on him after he got up.

The white instigator broke a window on Smith's vehicle. Smith saw that shit and took action.

Caught the guy flatfooted.

Smith was parked in a residential area and not anywhere near any stores or businesses affect by the protests.

"I chased him down and whipped his ass," Smith said on social media.

Smith said in the video that he wanted to make it clear that his retaliation wasn't because the man was white.

"This ain't no hate crime. I ain't got no problem with nobody who ain't got no problem with me. It's a problem with the motherfucking system. That's it," Smith said.

Smith said that he sympathizes with the protests however, he is no fan of white instigators trying to sow discourse and undermine the message of changing the status quo.

"You want to peacefully protest -- a hundred percent, we can do that all day. But once you get to vandalizing people's personal property that has nothing to do with nothing -- and a hundred percent, honestly, I'm the only black guy on my block; I'm the only black person on this corner," he said the Pat McAfee Show.

"So for you to randomly just -- thinking you're doing something for the people, the one black person who was able to get out of the situation and move into a nice neighborhood and do all of those things that we aspire to do, you broke that person's window without even knowing. So it's like, people are consistently doing stuff, when you don't even know what you're doing it for or why you're doing it -- out of all the people -- a hundred percent."

Smith is a 15-year NBA veteran. He has played 11 seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers before being waived in 2019.
