Found this video through the Boston Celtics Reddit, thought it had some great clips showing Smart's anticipation and hustle on defense.

You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.

When he and Bradley are in the game together, it's going to be nuts. Bradley hounding the pg and Smart playing the passing lanes.

Rondo is great playing the passing lanes as well, so I suspect those 3 could create unreal havoc while on the court at the same time, despite Smart's vertical disadvantage at SF.

I thought he played well despite missing shots. He had poise, found the open man, didn't force anything. He's going to be a great on the defensive end as he gets more comfortable. I think the shots will fall too eventually he was clutch in the final minute.
