Enjoy. It looks like both of them are putting in a ton of work together, which is great to see. God forbid any more injuries, I'm expecting a sizable leap from Smart this year, and I think he's a great influence and mentor defensively for Brown.

I'm excited for these guys.  Our talent level has gotten better each and every year.  Isaiah and Horford and Jaylen and Smart are really  the core of this team in different directions.  It's a good mix though.  With all the picks we have coming we can really build in so many ways.

Yep, it looks like he's regularly putting in two-a-day and three-a-day workouts focusing specifically on his shooting. Even just bringing his shooting and finishing up to average levels next year would make him such a magnificent overall asset for us.

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.

I am glad they are working out.  But working on shooting with Smart,  could be dicey.   He may not be the best guy on the team to get shooting tips from.   Hopefully, Smart learns to drive from Brown, though.

Perfect.  When these guys work their butts off like this in the off season I just know it will pay off.

This is the stuff I wanted to hear about all summer. Maybe I'm weird, but I like seeing how guys comparable to Marcus are doing. Guys like Lavine and Clarkson, for example. Both those guys have been in the gym seemingly all summer. Clarkson, especially, has impressed me a lot. He got his big money, and yet he's still back in the gym working on his game. He's gotten a LOT bigger, and his 3 point shot looks very, VERY nice. Add in that he's a Laker, and I really wanna see Marcus do better than him. I want more news about this. More clips. More evidence. I wanna see these guys in the gym working hard on their game.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about
