For those interested, here's the audio clip where Max tells what Smart said accounted for the team's improved play the last 9-10 games: LINK: omny.fm/shows/toucher-rich-1/cedric-maxwell-joins-toucher-rich-the-stack-2-17-hGo to 7:55 of the audio clip for the elevator trip Max had with Smart ... Some agree and some are pissed at Smart for taking credit on the turnaround.
Info gleaned from this audio: C's are in weight room lifting after they play a game on instruction from trainor

<button disabled="" class="c-attachment-insert--linked o-btn--sm">Attachment Deleted</button> OK. Not A Baseball forum but I wanted to post this on this Anniversary date as I expect some of you are Sox fans. .He said his best team was the Marines. Who knows his stats if he did not go in the military. I am an Octogenarian Marine roots run deep living in New England so a long time Red Sox fan. The draft 60s draft called me away. Have lived in California for 50 years. Get Goosebumps when a bit north of San Diego on the Ted Williams parkway. Yup, Pesky, Doerr, DiMaggio, Goodman, Stevens, Tibbetts, Kinder, Parnell, McDermott etc....saw them in person. Please link on to text below to enlarge. Ted Williams!!!...

IMO, its hard to put your finger exactly on why, but I think the multi-year sample size makes it quite clear that Smart is absolutely critical to the success of this team.

After 3 games D9W has not shown me he is any better than JRich or Schroder! He's a much better passer and playmaker than both.

JRich and Schroder will never be confused with Smart defensively or offensively.
DWhite could be confused with Smart defensively but almost never offensively.
Those are all good reasons to give up that much for him
You want players that play like Smart on defense. You don't want players that play like Smart on offense (in the past, I should add)

He's 5'9 but dynamic like IT4! Nobody is like IT4, but you get the idea!

He's sturdy and athletic, too so he's less of a liability on defense.

Love the guy and what he's accomplished in ME but Ime won't play anyone who's a defensive liability ... that's why Brad just dumped 7 players from the roster. White, Theis & Kornet bring size & defense to the table. Clemons might give up as many as he gets. I can't see Brad bringing Clemons up ... if he were gonna do that then why doesn't he just bring IT4 back?
That said, why is Clemons on the Maine Celtics ... just to help them compete or to be developed for a future in the NBA?
Here's another opinion from HH: I see Valentine being the 1st option unless his hand injury takes too long to rehab or surgery becomes an option ... then Clemons may get a look.
It’d be an exhilarating boost to the Cs fanbase ahead of what could be a surprising run through the east given the team’s 2021-22 start, but IT isn’t phoning home. Instead, guys like Denzel Valentine and Chris Clemons of the Maine Celtics could get the look as backcourt targets.

Ime better lighten up then! Steve Kerr, John Paxson, Danny Ainge, Tony Parker and many more were not great defenders and it never stopped them from putting their stamp on championships!

Kornet has been signed along with Hauser to NBA contracts ... they aren't going anywhere. They may still have a 2-way open since Hauser signed.

Yeah, I remembered after I had already posted! Stupid signing though, we need a guard who can score more than we need Kornet!

He HAS to be trying to force Ime to play Pritchard and Nesmith!
Let's face it. Clemons, or Valentine or Pinson would DEFINITELY take their minutes.
Is that bad though? Pritchard and Nesmith need to FORCE their way into minutes at practice.

Hate to bring it up to you, but Youtube has been hiding dislike numbers for some time now. You can dislike a video, but the total count of dislikes would not be shown anymore. I call it bullsh*t.
