If you could get Smart to quit shooting all together, the offense would jump 15 spots in the rankings.

I heard a rumour that the league is going to start scoring a pass to an open Smart beyond the 3 point line as a turnover.

Read a dude on a board once who claimed to have sat at the table next to a bunch of Mavs players in an IHOP after a preseason game. He said that Patrick O'Bryant started talking about how he didn't really like basketball and only played it because he was tall and could get paid for it. Also said that JJ Barea just sat there with the biggest look of disgust imaginable on his face as he was saying this.

Making Tatum the lead scorer for the second unit seems like a good idea, for the team and for his development.

But Rozier’s not stepping up, either. We need him and Marcus on defense, but they both seem like they’ve regressed lately on offense.

If I'm brad I bench smart every time he plays like he's kobe until he gets it in his thick skull that he sucks as a shooter.

At some point Brad needs to sit down Marcus.

Wouldn't be surprised if there's a little tension there. JT got the ball and shot it with purpose next time. Seems like the type of guy who's smart enough to wonder why his team is feeding the ball to the worst offensive player in the NBA.

Christ. You don't need to shoot every time up the floor and I can't imagine he hasnt already been told that

It's clearly Brad's fault at this point. He needs to stick to doing what he does best. He has no business taking this many shots in a game.

I don't understand the in-game "entertainment" -- is the basketball product not good enough?

But well, honestly... if we can win games with Smart shooting like this... than why not. Maybe he can actually improve his shooting one day. Then watch out.

That day is probably never coming though.

Obviously Smart's shooting is disgusting, but I'm really disappointed in Terry's offensive play this year. Expected a lot more.

Smart with another shot - are he and Brad trolling us???
