Burke will get a shrine maybe -- but not an appreciation thread.

That said, I think your attitude about Baldy is a little harsh! The guy is playing his hair off! He is totally wigged out! Come on...

Jason Smith really seems like an awesome dude and a great teammate:

“We had a great rotation against the Warriors,” Smith said. “That’s the way the game is evolving with small lineups. Small one through four and maybe one big guy out there. I just got to remain ready. Got to be prepared to go in at any time. It’s how the season has progressed. We knew that when we got Ian back. You’ve got to be prepared for anything. “

It’s an unusual position for Smith to lose playing time when he had been playing so well. The last time he was on a playoff team was 2011 with the then-New Orleans Hornets with Chris Paul and Trevor Ariza.

“I haven’t really had to deal with it like this playing throughout the year. But I haven’t been on winning teams like this either.

Smith won’t go to Brooks and ask for more time.

"For him to stay ready and come in and impact the game in his nine or 10 minutes," Brooks said, "was huge."

Jason Smith is really growing on me, like a bacterial infection.

Aside from AFM, I may be his biggest fan.

Actually, they're 2-3, with wins against Golden State and the Clippers, but who's counting?

I have to admit his dunk over Diana is amazing:

How did he get a DNP after the Suns game?

queridiculo · Post #78 » by **queridiculo** » Thu Mar 9, 2017 1:46 pm

Suns played extremely small with Chandler at power forward, probably not a good matchup for him and Mahinmi ate all the center minutes.

Jason Smith is shooting .600 from 10-16 feet, .523 from 16-22 feet, and .522 from 3PT range.

He is literally the best midrange shooter in the league. Here's a screen of shooters with at least 100 attempts from 10-22 feet, ranked by FG%:

If you only look at 16-22 feet, he falls to 2nd behind Durant.

Also note that Beal and Porter rank highly as well. I also like Smith's percent assisted :lol:

. The guy is a robot. He has one job and he does it really freakin' well.

Bench Beal, start Smith. The numbers don't lie.
