JR Smith is ready to take the Marshawn Lynch approach with saying more by saying less about his exclusion from this years all star weekend three point contest. You can tell Smith wants to really go off about it but he is trying to keep calm. Even Lebron seemed upset that he wasn’t selected.

“Other than stats and analytics and everything they use on everything else, I hope they just use better judgment,” Smith said Friday morning when asked what criteria should be weighed when making selections.

Golden State’s Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, J.J. Redick of the Los Angeles Clippers, Houston’s James Harden, Milwaukee’s Khris Middleton, Toronto’s Kyle Lowry, Miami’s Chris Bosh and Phoenix’s Devin Booker were invited to participate in the event.

JR has made more three’s this season than Bosh, Middleton and Booker. Smith ranks 18th all-time in 3-pointers made with 1,584 as of Friday and is ninth among active players. Of the eight active players ahead of him on the all-time list, only two of them (Jamal Crawford and Vince Carter) have never been invited to the contest, like Smith, a 12-year veteran.

“There can’t be too many guys in the field that has more career 3s or more games with eight or more made in a game that’s actively still playing now,” said LeBron James, who publicly stumped for Smith’s inclusion last month. “It is what it is. There’s nothing we can do about it.”

“I might take the Marshawn Lynch approach on this one, so I don’t get fined,” Smith said, noting the Seattle Seahawks running back’s notoriously brief comments to the media. “I got a lot to say about it, but I’m not going to say anything because it’s not going to help it.”
