Smart had two nice plays following that comment.  They are about even now.

He looks real good, continuing his SL success, but Smart has an important role even with Rozier solidly taking the backup PG spot. I actually think Smart will benefit from being more of a 2/3.

I like Smart being more aggressive the last couple of possessions.

However, I feel like Brad still isn't using him properly offensively. They still have him almost as a spot-up shooter with the first and second lineups. I fear that Rozier is a little too focused on himself at times and doesn't properly share the ball-handling with Smart like he should, which made them really good in the scrimmage and apparently all training camp long.

so what is the general take on our bench play today?  shooting obviously wasn't there today for them, but did Jaylen, Rozier, Mickey have decent stetches of play?

Am I reading the thread right and that James Young has contributed???  I gotta sit down.

Is anyone else thoroughly enjoying this? Like its not a "high" level of basketball going on right now, but for a game that doesn't matter this is entertaining.

It's high paced ball.  Both teams getting up and down the court.  Nice to see some offense out of Rozier and Smart.

Do you think we could get a 2nd rounder for Hunter or would we need to cut him?

second midrange pullup from Smart. Love to see the midrange game expand for him.

Nice shot by Smart.  Loving the Rozier/Smart vs D-Leaguers show.

Good question

Rozier is fine.  Marcus is huge for a guard.  Hits a nice jumper in the lane then brings it up and finds hunter who misses then gets on Hunter saying you can make that.
