Yet another pundit/analyst/commentator disagrees with you:
While Smith's defense is hard to replace, the big man combination of Horford and Millsap will be pretty hard to defend on a nightly basis. Millsap is also a better player overall than Smith. The question with replacing Smith was always going to be, "Can you improve on the position when you do that?" Apparently, the answer is yes.
