    I wanna know why our coach sat Josh Smith out so many games toward the end of the season. He obviously helped us there at the end just being on the court.

    We had to give those minutes to our best PF, Corey Brewer. Duh.

    Playoff Josh Smith last year was the single biggest factor in losing to the Warriors. Let's see: He falls into Dwight's knee and tears the meniscus. Then he plays like donkey doo in each game.

    Don't get me wrong. Elbow Get X100000 against the Mavs and the Clippers comeback was amazing J Smoove. Warriors series he turned back into a pumpkin.

    We need Smoove and KJ to slow down the Warriors 2nd team. JB must match up as follows.

    D12 and Capela vs. Bogut or Eli?
    KJ or Brewer vs. Livingston
    Pat vs. Curry
    Ariza vs. Thompson
    Harden vs. Barnes
    Smooth and Beasley vs. Draymond and Speights (take him out of the paint for rebounding opportunities)
    Terry and KJ vs. Brazilian Flash

    "Good" Josh Smith >>>>> Draymond Green

    Hopefully dummy JBB gives Smoove a chance early and often to see if he's gonna be on that game. It's usually fairly obvious whether he's gonna have a good game or not.

    Are you talking about the great Josh we saw against the Mavs or the terrible one we saw against the Warriors tinman? :grin:

    It would be nice but Beasley should get all of his minutes.

    I think his playoff defense makes an important appearance when we need it most.

    I think this is a joke right? Second best player on a 73 win team is leaps and bounds better than any version of Josh Smith, even prime.

    if any of them can play sf then have them take brewer's minutes
    or if dmo's gonna be under-utilized as usual then take him out of the rotation and go with beasley for starting pf and smoove backup.

    Can he roll into Draymond's meniscus this time? Someone hire Kubiak to teach Josh how to cut block real quick.
