Have you ever went to touch what you thought was a dead Possum? I did once. Lost the tip of my finger.
Found out quickly don't mees with a dead possum. It's probably not dead.No Pud new angle no more broken record. Stevens. Coach of the year? Ainge GMof the year? Yes sir they have my vote. Smart bogus defensive rating i posted is what? Bogus .Numbers mean nothing He's a god on D i don't care if his man puts up 30 while he gets 10 most nights. H-u-n-g-r-y for some possum stew?
You can eat everything... from the snout to the a-hole.

Of course that wouldn't be reflected in the number of steals that he gets. Smarts about team defense more than individual defense. Also he probably doesn't take as many shots as the guy he's guarding. At least hopefully not. good points...

Not something i made up NBA numbers. I see him get beat game in and game out by quicker PGs . My eyes and the numbers match up it seems. Just asking something is amiss. Sometimes your eyes and you mind play tricks perhaps i have entered the....

If you go back that far, Marcus Smart and IT were on the court together most of the time.

Just trying to figure out if the numbers the NBA or ESPN provides really mean anything orr not. Ill take a guess here. Most think they are worthless . We have larger issues than Smart as long as he keeps his shot attempts below 10. If we get Davis Smart will likely be involved in the trade to make the money work so maybe its a moot issue. Hard to deny that guards have takin us to the bank this season is all i know.. Maybe someone besides Smart is responsible?

Do you know when he started starting? When they realized that Kyrie wasn't playing much better defense then Thomas this year, and Hayward simply couldn't. Smart is there to make up for the defensive shortcomings of Kyrie Irving in the starting lineup. Jaylen Brown can guard his man individually better, but he can't guard Kyrie's too and shade like Marcus and AB.

If that's the case,of which I highly doubt, we should go back to Brown, because it's not working!!

Even now it's working better than the 10 and 10 start with Jaylin. But I agree, I think it's time to try starting JB

Anyone does for that matter but yea Smart plays team defense better than most others on this team. I would like him with the second unit for his passing seems like they have a problem with ball movement more games than not.

I agree that Brown should be starting...Smart coming off of the bench...I think that coach just wants Hayward to have some company on the bench...

Irving is a much better defender than it, and can be half decent in big moments.
