Disagree about Rozier  being invisible.....he may be leading rebounder

[walker834]

Smart is definately not shy.

[timobusa]

Rozier for 3!

[KeepRondo]

The only possible complaint anyone can have about Smart is his 3-Point shot selection. Other than that he's dominated the game.

Totally agreed.

Yea, totally agreed. But don't you see how that is THE problem for him? Apologize if I have high expectations for him, but I wouldn't care if I didn't think he had major upside.

He is dominating the game.

I hope he keeps improving his three point shot.  I know he jacks them at times but his shot keeps getting better.  People wanting him to focus on midrange are missing how the league is going entirely.  He should be following a Harden like approach.  Smart should be attacking the rim foremost and that's exactly what he's doing.

In summer league especially, I want to see him taking a lot of shots.  This is his chance to own the ball every game and if he's confident on offense and shooting a lot I'm fine with that.

I'm not seeing the same thing as you. I see Smart struggling with his drives. Forcing wild shots against scrubs cause he cant get clean air. The aggressiveness is goid but the wild shots not so much.

Rozier 2 really nice plays in a row.

OK -- LOVE Rozier.  It's official.

Like what Rozier has shown. His speed and explosion is evident. He'll be able to get to the basket consistently.

I'd actually like to see him sit the rest of the games.  This level of play is below him.  We need to see Rozier run the offense and need to see more shots from Young and Hunter.

Who has Smart's stat line? It's got to be full across the board

[rondohondo]

Rozier reminds me a lot of Jordon Crawford with better defense

[tarheelsxxiii]

I don't see why our guard rotation can't remain the same and have Rozier take pressey's minutes.  James Young has to fit in there somewhere.

Seriously, I want nothing more than to trade Bradley and Turner, and then play a 4 guard rotation of Thomas / Smart / Young / Rozier


I don't care if Rozier is a little raw at first.  He's 21 years old, sending him to the D-League for a year isn't worth it.

Lol. I joked about a lineup of these 4 guards + Hibbert aimlessly roaming. Eventually talked myself into actually wanting it to happen.

[walker834]

Anyone else remember when Joe Johnson and Kedrick were afraid to shoot it?   Marcus and Rozier are defintately more aggressive than those 2.

Who has Smart's stat line? It's got to be full across the board

23 pts
5 Boards
8 Assists
2 Steals

[Chief]

Rozier should have passed the ball to Hunter.

[Neurotic Guy]

Smart is 6-19 from the floor, but is 9-9 fromt he line.
