Smart does not want to give the ball up to anyone.

I was gonna say I wish Smart starts playing the same way as though the other starters were playing. He’s trying to score too much, to the detriment of ball movement.

Let PP handle the ball!!!

Theis made me a bit sad just now

[Atzar]

Calm down.  Can't have the turnovers.  Make intelligent decisions.

He's just throwing the ball away.

Falling apart at the seams. Not that I'm surprised to see it, but it's still annoying that we're giving this Craptors team delusions of grandeur.

I’m beginning to wonder if they are trying to lose and only Smart knows.

[pokeKingCurtis]

Doing OK against a team aspiring to make the play ins

They can win this though, just gotta clean up a bit

He's certainly not reassuring me about Rob's injury.

He's the only one on the active roster who can sort of create a shot against set defense, with the possible exception of White.  No, he's not good at it, but "not good" is the best we've got.

We can yell about ball movement all we want, but just passing around the perimeter doesn't do anything.  Somebody has to bend the defense and he's our only real option.

It's fine, no Al Horford makes this tough.

[slamtheking]

Toronto seems to be getting away with a lot of physical play on their D

[Silas]

Early season Smart tonight.
