worth noting that marcus smart can body 90% of the pgs in this league. I would love to see him and russell westbrook in the octagon.

I agree.

Hate not seeing him at PG, but Brad loves to pair him with IT or Rozier.  Rather see him running the 2nd unit with Brown and/or Green's length to compliment his.

Our 1st unit is way too small, and Brad's brilliant solution is to follow them up small ball and 3 guard lineups.

I'd rather see him bring in Smart and either Brown or Green early for IT and AB.  That's a scary defensive team with all that size/length.

It also allows Smart to bully the 90% of PGs in the league who he can move out of his way with a finger, especially once Kelly or Jerebko come in for Amir and step up our passing/shooting.  Then Horford and Crowder are the last 2 starters subbed out, followed closely by IT and AB coming back in, and since they're our 2 best scorers they're the best guys for the job of carrying the 2nd unit.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

I love Smart posting up. Something to consider though is that he's more effective posting up 1's than 2's or 3's. Unfortunately, due to personnel, he has to play 2 or 3 a bunch because he usually plays with Rozier or IT. If Green could earn more minutes (like he did against NY), he'd play the 1 more.
