Believe it or not, one Reddit user's Church-going experience this past Sunday was much more enjoyable thanks to the shoe-untying antics of J.R. Smith. As CZbwoi tells it:

I went to one of the Harvest Bible Chapel churches in the Chicago area this morning and at the start of the sermon the pastor asked the church if they knew who J.R. Smith was.

Cue some chatter and whatnot, he said his son told him about an incident that recently happened during a professional basketball game. Showed him the video, he was laughing and couldn't believe it. He told the church then about the shoe-untying incident, everyone gasped and chuckled, it was hilarious.

He then said that he brought the video footage and everybody laughed. It played on the big projector screen and it was the one with Shawn Marion's shoe, it was hilarious. He then showed it again in slow-motion, everyone lol'd.

The sermon then continued about how this is a professional basketball player who was acting like a child, on live tv, and needed to grow up. And then continued about how we all needed to grow up, we all act childish sometimes, etc.

That sounds much more fun than this sermon on J.R. Smith.
