Veteran gunslinger JR Smith has officially signed with the Los Angeles Lakers. The move was expected to happen, with reports dating back a few days ago saying it was all but a formality.

While this move adds some depth, and possibly some shooting, anyone with a brain set between their two ears realizes the most important thing for the Lakers during this NBA restart is LeBron James, Anthony Davis and how the already-there Purple and Gold will do when they join forces in Orlando.
Eight games, then the NBA Playoffs, is not a lot of time to build chemistry. But who knows?
Time, as it always does, will tell just how much of an impact JR Smith has for the famed Los Angles Lakers. Until then, though, fans can go on social media to create funny memes at the expanse at LeBron's former, now again, teammate.
