I love AB and Isaiah is our best scorer apparently, Turner is also a great scorer off the bench ,  but Marcus is the future and can dominate both ends when he has the ball in his hands.

Yea even though it came against Larkin, he needs to start , i dont think he can prosper coming off the bench right now.

He probably will when he gets back to full minutes. This Bradley injury is probably the stepping stone to him replacing him in the lineup.

Knowing brad and his obsession over ET, i doubt smart starts.

I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Using Smart as a sparkplug off the bench and with teh amount of guards we have is really holding him back imo. He's too unselfih too and he really needs to be more involved offensively.  I dont know how he is going to  be able to really play to his ability with all the guards we have.

If smart demands the ball he is one of the few guys we have who can dominate both ends.

He only takes the initiative if he hits a couple shots. Otherwise he defers.

well the only way he hits shots is if he takes shots. Right now hes not taking shots. He needs to be more of a focal point for the offense.

Well it would help if he could hit shots. First thing he needs to do is improve his shooting.

Yeah, I love Smart and he almost won this game for us, but I agree he desperately needs some help offensively. Perhaps more post-ups or cuts to the basket would help him get into more of a rhythm. He just isn't a good iso player right now.

He probably should start again, but I am thinking he should take Sully's place, not Bradley's.
