Really like seeing that pull up my Smart around the FT line.

Yes, more please.
Was a nice looking shot. Looks like a shot he should be able to duplicate with ease.

There's a difference between him pulling up short for that floater and him going all of the way. I have no problem with the floater, just don't take it up against two or more guys that are bigger than you when you can kick it out.

James Young's high side might be Will Barton.

Yea, then there are the dumbasses that say Smart is just a spot-up shooter.

IT's usage% may reach Mickey's PER in a couple of weeks. Teeing off every chance he gets.

Jae still looks injured to me... gimpy, lacking aggression/explosiveness

I'd agree with that.  Not because IT missed the earlier layup, but because passing the ball up for a better (non-contested) shot is almost always the correct basketball play.  Especially in today's league where wide open 3's - especially corner 3's, where Smart was - is a very highly desired shot.  Trust your teammates and pass the ball.

James Young seems slow compared to guys like Will Barton. I think that was the biggest disappointment is that he wasn't the athlete I thought he was when we drafted him.

Get in the paint Sully!

Yep. Crazy how good he can be if he can put it together.

We could be ECF contenders if he figures out the offensive end.
