Didn't we lose the night before with him?  It's summer league, I don't read too much into it after the years of watching people dominate the Summer League to be atrocious in the regular season.

Summer league team lost with smart. He shot 30% and they were crushed by Dante exum and the Jazz

I think Rollie meant "the guys were lost without Smart."

I agree with him. I think Smart brings leadership.

It's not a talented team, with or without Smart.

with Smart/without Smart doesn't really matter.  the primary concern is that summer league is very guard-centric and with a team of mostly guards, we've looked horrendous

With Smart running the show, the team looked better on the court. And Smart was still kind of a hog.

Rozier is a sg in a pg body. It drives me nuts that on a 3 to 1 transition opportunity he does not know how to pass the ball.

Besides Mickey, who is ok, those Celtic big men are chuckers. It's like their agent said, "shoot every time so another team notices you. Maybe wear pink light up shoes too."

So Marcus or not, Celtics are not winning without a good big man.

This is likely a Homer post but Im not that discouraged....yet. Summer league games just turn into pickup ball and I think(hope) most of our rookies were drafted for their potential fit in our system. Plus we are playing REALLY small out there.

thanks for seeing the play on words,TP for that

we don't have a true center and holding smart totally out of game is not good for anybody
the starting 5 was who i would have started but both james and rj are trying to play d and its effecting there shots and what little team practice they had was with smart at point-

You've obviously never seen Rozier play outside of summer league games

I don't really care if they win a game in the summer league. The point of summer league is to give these guys a shot to see if they have a chance to make it in this league. Smart doesn't need to play another game, we know he can play in this league. I want see Young, the 4 rooks, and whatever big guys are on the roster. These guys need to come out and show something.

On a side note., C.J Fair looks like he's outplaying Young and the other 4 rooks.

Exactly. Smart, as the most experienced player was all over the ball in game one--to the same ultimate result.
