Having Smart run point looks like dead basketball. No one is cutting no one is moving they are just sitting around the 3pt line and waiting for someone to do something.

PP or Schröder need to take point and get ball movement.

2) "brown has no BBIQ"

The last 3 possessions he wasn't primary ball handler. And we go on a run.

Ime isn't looking great, but people are underestimating Smart's potential as a negative player when given primary ball handling roles

Schroder should be playing PG.

Smart is just too unreliable.

The fact that Udoka realized instantly that Rob was a starter puts him ahead of Brad already for me

Rob Williams is unironically the best player in the NBA if he plays 33 minutes a game. I am unsure if he will have a missed field goal on the season.

I am seeing major Red flags with IME's coaching Philosophy. Please tell me he is not Brad part 2

This is annoying. Is Tatum the best player out there or nah? Show it dude. Dominate and stop acting like you're too cool for school.

Otherwise, rest of the team is playing like Aaron Nesmith. All energy and no idea how to use it.
