marcus smart all ready plays d with the intensity only youth can bring.His willingness to create contact,to fight over top ,his upper body strength even against the bigs .The quick hands and how he strips the ball. --NONE OF THAT CAN BE TAUGHT-he just has it.The whole NBA wants hin to succeed and he all ready is being allowed to play like no other rookie on defense.Marcus ,crowder and bradley will shake up some players,As he did with cousins but it is a long season to war at that intensity.Russelll did it ,bird did it and cowens did it ,havilck did it ,paul pierce kevin garnett and sometimes Rondo.

i'd like to know why jameer gets mins. at all? if marcus is making mistakes out there, then you put jameer in. otherwise there's no point, I think we know what kind of pro jameer will be. let's not run plays for him.

1st half when jameer was out there, it was all about jameer. smart was not moving just standing on the 3 pt. line playing the "maybe someone will forget about me offense". what the hell are we doing with these players?
The version of Nelson we saw last night doesn't belong in the NBA.  Can't move, can't shoot, can't guard anyone - Pressey at least gives you two of the three.
