When J.R. Smith‘s struggles in the NBA Playoffs started everyone was quick to blame it on him hanging out with Rihanna. The two were in the same picture, not necessarily together (posted to the left), at a New York club after one of the Knick losses to the Celtics in the first round.

Even calling J.R. “desert thirsty.” J.R. is no stranger to controversy was fined $25,000 by the NBA for posting this inappropriate picture on Twitter, and also had some Twitter beef with Kris Humphries after a Knick loss to the Nets.

Redick hopped on his Instagram page and posted a picture of how players should enter the arena, at least how he sees it. Redick then followed that picture with a lengthy caption.
