Chris Smith

Sometimes in life, you have a choice. Either following your father/big brother steps and stay in his shadow for the rest of your life ... OR trying everything you can to create your own identity.

Sadly for New York Knicks fans all around the world, our Donkey, guard Chris Smith, decided to take the first road and thanks to his older brother, two-time Donkey of the Day J.R. Smith, he is now a part of one of the most known NBA teams on Earth. Is this the new way to get a shot at professional basketball for "Garbage Time" players all around the world ? By letting a well known family member hold your hand and get the job done for you ? So much for dedication and hard work ...

But after all, is it a good thing ? We all have in mind someone like Luke Walton, in the NBA because of his legendary father, and even if he is labeled as an NBA player ... Well he is just a bench player and that's where our Donkey is headed : on the bench.

So, enjoy your career as a journeyman Chris ! Your tweets to us already indicated how thin-skinned you where and everyone knows that weak players will succeed in NYC... OR NOT !
