Denver guard JR Smith will have to do about a month of jail time soon stemming from a car accident that took his friends life 2 years ago. This will be his second conviction of reckless driving and evidently the judge is going to make sure he gets his punishment. Along with the jail time he will have to complete about 500 hours of community service (Cmon man, if you mess up one time just leave the sports car in the garage or get a freaking driver). Hopefully this punishment along with the fact that his friend is dead will be a wake up call for ole JR.

I guess the saying is true..."Mo money mo problems!"

Here is what the Denver Post had to say:

Smith has 20 days to appeal the sentence, but his attorney, Kevin Hexstall, said that is unlikely. "It was what we expected," Hexstall told The Denver Post by phone Tuesday night. "We knew he had an issue with respect to his driving record, which caused him to be exposed to the 90 days. The important thing is, he wanted to put this matter behind him.

According to Hexstall, Bell's mother, Wanda, considered "J.R. to be like a son" and wrote a letter stating she did not want Smith to go to jail. Bell's family has filed a wrongful death suit against Smith. "It's not like something like this happens and you just move on," Smith said Tuesday during the hearing. "I can't talk to ???Dre...He's still a part of me." Smith also apologized directly to Wanda Bell, who then blew him a kiss. "I told her I wish the shoe was on the other foot," Smith said in court.
