J.R. Smith arrives to Game 4 on a Segway, almost wipes out immediately
By Ian Levy
If I told you that a player arrived to a Finals game on a Segway, who would be the first player that popped into your head?
J.R. Smith?
Yep, me too. Which is why you shouldn’t be surprised then, that the player who rode into Game 4 on a Segway was, in fact, J.R. Smith.
Shout-out to Leigh Ellis of The Starters for taking the clutch video. J.R. is amazing.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go quite so smoothly after this little clip. It turns out that J.R. almost wiped out, because what else would you expect to happen? Hey, at least he didn’t drive it off a cliff like the guy who invented the Segway did a few years ago.

Anyways, this is one of the best things J.R. has done in a while. Things like this are why he’s one of the most entertaining players in the league today. Hopefully for the Cavs, however, his stylish entrance isn’t the highlight of his night.
