If Smart could play with the mindset of a PG every game. Team would be so much better. He’s a good passer.
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

How much leeway are we giving Evan Fournier?

On the plus side, he's playing his way into our price range.

Honestly I wonder if coming off the bench is effecting his rhythm. Not trying to make excuses but it’s an adjustment.

I think just being in a new team, maybe having to find his shots a different way to when he was in Orlando, trying to get a better feel for the flow of the offense. I'm not worried about him he'll be fine.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

That is the coach’s job.

That shot by Brown should earn a time out and benching

Really don't know what to say. The effort on defense has been really good.

Robert Williams 36 per stats are, for the most part,  3rd in the NBA and he's been playing harder than anyone on this team except for Pritchard.

The passing tonight has been better. The bench is in the middle of a rebuild which doesn't help.

The Rockets by the way are a terrible team and they aren't having a very good game at either end.

Yikes.
