Did someone actually suggest that trade?

Al Horford apparently stepped into a time machine before this game.  He looks really good.  He and Smart are doing incredible work in PnR defense.  They're forcing so many turnovers

I am aware of his shortcomings, but I feel confident sending out a starting 5 with Smart somewhere in it.

It was actually suggested, can't say for sure whether it was a person or a machine that just picks names out if a hat, though
I'm bitter.

Maybe this should be our new starting lineup. Lol

Morris has been very solid though all season.  Maybe it’s time to start him alongside Horford.  Smart’s defensive intensity could be good to start the game with.

Smart only has 1 steal but it is his ball pressure that has caused a lot of the Pelican turnovers.

Yeah this starting 5 looks great so far, and I like the previously proposed idea of Jaylen getting unleashed with more touches in a 6th man role with him playing SF.

I'd love to have either of the energy guys (Smart or Theis) coming off the bench early when we need a jolt

Even with his awful jumper, Smart is dangerous in the pick and roll. I love seeing him getting other guys good shots.

I love that they're looking to post Al.  We need more of that.
