    Meant to add... Sorry to see Black get cut, hopefully he gets picked up, definitely has a lot of potential for new player, I mean to basically be a walk-on (undrafted) and make the team is pretty damn impressive. Houston definitely had to go for it though, pretty great opportunity with Smith.

    Morey will just walk in and set down his briefcase down on his desk and pop it open, turn it and slide it towards Josh.

    "Mr. Smith this is what you were, and this is what you could be."

    "what do I have to do?"

    Morey gathers the papers and places them into his briefcase and snaps it shut.

    "Dunk it." Morey stands up and ushers Mr. Smith to the door.

    "One more thing Mr. Smith. Not one, im telling you, not one midrange shot."

    "but mor..."

    "NOT ONE!"
    Morey slams the door shut*

    Let it go. While he was decent in his prime on Offense I doubt he was ever a 20ppg player so the numbers on Offense were not there entirely.

    All he had to do was score 2-4 points more per game.

    I'd settle for

    Smoove 10 points, 4 blocks, 4 steals, 8 boards, 4 assists in 30 minutes

    along with

    Brewer 10 points, 5 boards, 4 steals, 3 assists, 2 blocks

    along with

    Ariza 14 points, 5 boards, 4 steals, 2 blocks

    along with

    Dwight 20 points, 12 boards, 4 blocks, 2 assists

    along with

    Harden 28 points, 12 assists, 3 steals, 4 boards, 1 block

    along with

    Bev 10 points, 5 boards, 4 steals, 2 assists, 2 blocks

    along with

    DMo 10 points, 3 boards, 1 steal, 3 assists


    IOW, I'll settle for 102 points, 15 blocks, 20 steals, 42 boards, 26 assists frm our top 7.

    I was responding to the post of why didn't they have Smith do a physical first before waiving Black. Apologies for the confusion.

    I think they were going to waive the physical regardless. It a low risk $2m contract that expires this summer

    If we have 15 blocks and 20 steals into only 102 points, that must mean some pretty bad shooting... Dare I say, "Josh Smith-esque" shooting?:p

    Because media and fans like you would rip him a new one about his priorities and focus.
