Smart is just on another level defensively. Such a ridiculously high BBIQ on defense.

Yeah the way he took that was crazy.  He was so quick getting to that spot

Smart 1-5

3 of those shots were 3 point bail out shots after other people dribbled away the clock. One was a miss but he got fouled. By my count, he took 1 bad shot that half. I can live with it. He'll find is range and he wont always be shooting contested bailout threes.

excuses.

Smart gotta hit some shots soon. Maybe he can hit a few jumpers in the second.

Maybe we can give him a few games back to find his shot?

Almost a year and half of bad shooting.

Not giving up. Just getting tired of the poor shooting.

He's not a shooter yet.  But he's not complete as a driver or passer either.  These are skilled to be developed.  I believe he'll develop.  He's young, intense, assertive, hard worker.

Good points. He's also determined to the point that he does stupid things out of frustration.

and yet the C's are a better team with him on the floor.  go figure.  imagine how much better the C's would be if he weren't as incompetent as you make him out to be.

Boo hoo. Lol.

All I said was he ain't shooting it well. How can you argue that?

I believe you also mentioned the bolded part above.  your overall tone towards his play has been negative which I find hypocritical coming from someone using the moniker "keepRondo".  complaining about Smart's shooting in comparison to Rondo's is at best head-scratching as well as doing stupid things out of frustration

He does stupid things when frustrated. Stop me when I say something wrong. I have also said Smart can be dynamic at times.

 

well there you go.  a nice dynamic move Smart taking that charge

We all know he could dominate. Just a matter of fixing his shot or not.

[positivitize]

there have been some really really weak calls (against the celtics) tonight.

I don't think we have ever seen Brad playing the bench that little

Nice to see Turner and IT getting into the paint, over and over, and doing damage with the pass or scoring.

[CelticsBR]

It is the starting five + Smart all night long =o

[trickybilly]

Incredible how much IT's ball-handling/pushing inside creates ALL our offense when KO, ET, aren't out there.

Lucky he is really good at it. Maybe no-one better.

[KeepRondo]

Move your feet Sully. Not your body.
