Marcus Smart is a dirtbag and I have zero respect for him as a basketball player. Typical clownish role guy who gets praised for his "grit and hustle" when that "hustle" is simply being a danger to the physical safety of the opposing players he shares the court with.

That's a good comparison for sure. We win by 25 tonight if he is replaced by Zach Lavine.


Is this a shot at me? This feels like a shot at me. :x

If he could shoot I'd agree


He can shoot?!


40% almost.

Pretty good.

It still shocks me that this has to be stated

I hate Smart as an opponent but he would be tied as my second favorite player if he was on the Bucks.

Tatum never really shows up against the Bucks so I have to assume they're a tough match up for him, usually it's Brown or Smart or Horford in years past that would do the most damage.

I'm loving Celtics fans crying about the non-call against Giannis more than I thought I would. **** Boston.

Highlight of the game was the heavy focus on the 8" wide out-of-bounds line. Just tremendous content that necessitated cutting from live action.

Jalen Brown would look great in a Bucks uniform.

It's like they forgot they were gifted 21 free throws in the second period, and that Marcus Smart gets away with bull all game.

I can’t stand him. Ersan has really mastered the art of positioning himself to draw charges. Smart just kind of runs in there and flops which is just dangerous.

Ersan has been absolutely victimized by some ridiculous poster dunks. If he pulls a Smart and started taking guys out those wouldn’t have happened. If you’re going to go for the charge, you have to live with the consequence of being on a poster. No need to undercut guys.
