    Nice, the boy really wants to be here. Which while not a big deal, is still a positive sign.

    This is good. Out of Smoove, Beverly, Howard, Brewer, and Ariza, we should be able to keep 3 elite defenders on the floor at all times. Blocks, steals, and fast breaks :)

    As long as Smith doesn't take bad shot's... i'll be ok. If he's open. Take it. If not, then don't take the shot.

    They will let him open. I don't care if he takes a few 3s but i don't want long fadeaways 2s.

    Yep. I am fine with him taking open 3's as long as he hits around 30% of them.

    Smith is ok defensively, but he hasn't been any better than DMo this year on the defensive side. Seems like those blocks/steals Josh is getting doesn't affect his opponents FG% that much, otherwise his stats would be better than DMo's. I'm bringing DMo up because I think it was his starting spot to lose and this starter spot promise to Smith was lame.
