Forget covering LeBron James - the Atlanta Hawks had absolutely no answer for J.R. Smith early on in Game 2.
Smith torched the Hawks for 14 points and four triples as he fired away with aplomb. Having already caught fire in the opening minutes with a few open looks, Smith started taking increasingly difficult looks.
Most of the time, Smith's heat checks went in. But then again he had his fair share of misses as well.
