I agree.

Smart, Thornton and Bass were very good also. smart went 0-8 but right now he is trying to make sure he doesn't screw up running the pt, vs needing to score.  However you can tell he doesn't have exceptional quickness/athleticism to get his way offensively in the nba. He really needs to get that shot to work. Otherwise i think we might have another Tony Allen on our hands. 

James Young is the real deal. If you didn't know how the draft actually went, one would think Young went 6th and Smart 18th.  Young is going to be a good one.

Young looks like a young PP

come on man, give him a break. The guy plays the right way.  That one dive for the loose ball is a good influence for the young guys

Young looked great, but the Tony Allen comment after one preseason game against a pathetic 76ers team has to be the definition of hyperbole. Smart was NEVER -- repeat: NEVER -- expected to score in the NBA based on his quickness and/or baseline-to-baseline speed. It was always his ball-handling, vision, strength and elite body control that would allow him to find lanes and finish at the rim. Tonight did not suggest that such expectations couldn't be met. He hardly drove to the rim, instead focusing on facilitating and defense while only taking the open jumper when he had it.

So in other words, you jus dont agree wit his opinion right??.. Its up to smart honestly if hes going to turn into a tony allen (which isnt bad at all actually) or excell highly in the nba world. . i can sorta understand why he wpuld say that

Me too.....I thought about it , and it's the expression on his face after scoring......it's a ....yup ...see I told you I was going to score and you can 't stop me .  A moment of reflection as a basket is scored ......his eyes say I'm bad to the bone ...

Smart stayed composed and kept the game simple using his best basketball assets.  By not trying to do too much on offense ,  being steady with the ball helped keep the young C's under control and gave them a chance to come back with Bass and Thornton scoring


I held my breath everytime AB touched the ball......I liked the ball in Smarts hands.

heck i'd go with a nonconventional starting 5 if i keep seeing the same productivity of:
Turner, Smart, Bradley, Young, Olynyk

small ball, but did anyone see all of those steals?!?! havoc is coming for those east conf guards

Sullinger and Zeller looked pretty bad. Powell looked pretty good by comparison. Hope Zeller can get his act together. Olynyk was good; but was more of a Summer league Game, not sure he will be able to duplicate that kind of play against real NBA talent.

Sully wasn't hitting his shot but he didn't look bad. He was snatching all the rbs, he had around 15 of them. I was ticked about a few he forced when he was pushed under the basket, shoulda passed it back out. Kelly has played well against better competition, so not surprising... he helps make our offense better even when he has an off night shooting. Powell did look good in his few minutes, I was looking for him every time and he would do little things that probably go unnoticed by most. Zeller looked lost on the one side I want the most out of him, defensive. I was so upset.

CBS needs to let Pressey get some minutes with RR out (he did second half), even last season you knew he was in the game because the offense just seemed quicker and crisper. Kid gets no love but he hustles his butt off and it helps us.

All that said, it's only preseason game 1, I expect everyone to get better from here.
