Marcus Smart and not attacking the hoop

[droopdog7]

Yeah, not trying to brag but my 11-year-old son can do those things as well.  I think that the lay person really has no idea of the skills NBA player possess.  That video is none too impressive. 

He can dunk and jump above the rim?  Somehow I doubt that.

Yeah, you're right.  But kids that play travel basketball year around are very skilled with the ball nowadays.  Can do a lot of things the pros can do at an early age.  My son started playing travel ball at eight.

I really like how Smart has improved his shooting but my God man, he should DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE!!!  I stupidly thought he'd be the next DWade.

I'm all for Smart developing his outside shooting in-game. If people respect his 3, it will make it much easier for him to get his own shot. I remember seeing some shot-fake drive plays out beyond the 3.

Yes I'm sure your kid can put the ball though the hoop.  Same thing.
