This went unnoticed during Thursday night’s closer-than-expected contest between the Knicks and the Thunder, but you can bet that the league will be reviewing it in the days that follow. With about 5:20 remaining in the fourth quarter, J.R. Smith takes an aggressive swing with his right elbow to the head of Thabo Sefolosha. Thankfully for everyone involved, he missed. But it was a violent attempt, and the intent was clear. The two were battling physically on this particular possession, and usually when it escalates to the point where one player is taking a swing at another, it’s because little shots here and there have been delivered throughout the game, likely from both sides.
