He does all the little big things patterson doesn't do. Box out. Dunk beastly. Hustles on both ends. Low post threat. Underrated defense.
He sure looks ripped as hell tonight. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>This guy, @<a href="https://twitter.com/ju_smith4">ju_smith4</a>.

I noticed it in the first half that Greg was having more success against Dwight then Asik. Who would've thunk it.
Heck yeah. Some dude on the Lakers Ground forum said, "So is Greg Smith the newest random scrub Morey has found to dominate us? Will he be joining the ranks of Carl Landry, Aaron Brooks, and Goran Dragic? Is there anyone I'm missing?" Awesome. His huge mitts gobble up any ball that's within a few yards, he plays like a grown-ass man, and it's nice to see him being rewarded with some burn and trust from his teammates.
Dude will slam it on anyone! Also love how well be is able to draw fouls, very efficient player so far. Rockets were smart sticking with this guy and letting him develop. Still got work to do but wow nice taste of what he could potentially be. Also to do it against the top defensive center in the game...impressive!

Yeah, i thought of the Landry comparison also. He's a little stiffer in his movements, not quite as mobile, but makes up for it with more strength and size.
