And for the Smart haters - notice that Smart was the only one on the floor diving for that ball. Timelord could've had it if he would've dove and got on the floor, but he didn't.

Smart's shot selection can be frustrating and it'd be nice if he offered more shooting and scoring, but there's a reason Boston loves him and keeps him around even despite these issues.
Him in a vacuum isn't necessarily a problem for most (it's a problem for me), but the money he's on for what he does is outrageous

I do agree that he's going to be getting paid more than I'm comfortable with starting next year, but from what the league is offering those types of players, he was going to be getting that somewhere.

Hopefully he'll have a Lowry-esque jump in his abilities - or at least shooting abilities - later in his career.

Tatum with zero points in the first quarter. Something’s not right with him.

Yeah, they should just give him a couple of games off at this point.

Nessie! He's ticked that he's been riding the bench!

Side note, I'm really enjoying Scal's commentary these days.

He's gotten heaps good.

Think that might be an unpopular opinion at this point? Idk. I like him.

not just play the bench but have them play in a manner that maximizes their abilities.  Grant getting put on a perimeter player is not a good situation but I don't put that issue on Grant but Ime

Like taking candy from a baby. Also, Nesmith is doing some WWE(F?) moves out there.
Lol.

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.

He's gotten better but he can't fill Tommy's shoes. He's improving.
