Lefty hook by Kyrie.  Pretty sure there is nothing he can't do.

Dunk on someone?

Time Lord too aggressive. Brad tried bringing him in early but recognized quickly it wasn’t working vs Gordon and pulled him.

Nice Jaylen.

So -- a question:  Who among us is beginning to get comfortable with Smart shooting the 3?   I still cringe, but I have to admit the feel is shifting.

I am, oddly....

Ya the three I'm getting fine with. Strangely its the 2 pointers i'm not comfortable with. Given that's he still not shooting over 40% overall, but is 35% from 3 I'd rather he take the threes.

Who can guard him?

Jimmy Butler can't guard him.

He's pretty much unstoppable.

Brown plays well with the starters since they draw more attention.

He's shooting 47.5% for 2 pointers.  He just takes more threes.

Saw that. Semms he regretted messing with the rotation. It will take time for Williams before he can be 1st big off the bench.

He looks much more comfortable offensively this season. We all can see it.

Just catching up to the live feed.

Looking good thus far! Much more energy all around tonight. Good to see Brown playing better again, too.

It seems pretty clear that Smart worked on both his shot and his handle this summer, likely with Kyrie. Funny that that improvement happened AFTER he got his big contract lol
