Jason Smith Appreciation Thread
Posted: Mon Nov 5, 2012 4:40 am
Throughout 3 games so far, Jason Smith has averaged 11.3 PPG, 4.0 RPG, 1 block, 60 FG%, with a 31.7 PER and leads the NBA in win shares per 48 minutes.
Of course, these numbers will not keep up.
However, ever since Jason has gotten to New Orleans, he has been the most energetic and perhaps the hardest working player I've ever seen on a Hornets team. He's continuously gotten better, and last season, showed he could be a very solid big off the bench. His play has continued to improved and he looks fantastic so far this season (and was the reason why we beat Chicago; 16 points on 5 shots)
Unfortunately, around the league, he gets very little respect. On the NBARank he was ranked below Hornets players that he is better than, and if you ask the average RealGM user, they could only tell you that he knocked down Blake Griffin.
