This team always seems  to go on some good runs when Marcus is running the point.  Then Turner comes in and Marcus either goes to the bench or to SG and the run stops there.

probably trying to maximize turners trade value by highlighting him
once he is traded or the trade deadline passes,  smart will start

Smart looks much closer to being able to start than he did when Rondo got traded. Everything has gotten better, passing, shooting, he looks much more comfortable.
Still I would like to see him in the paint more.

I agree he isn't quite there yet but the closer we get to the break the more i'm getting on the start marcus train.    It' might not happen this year.  But he should be starting sometime sooner rather than later.

I think he's on the cusp. You can see Stevens giving him a little more responsibility here and there every game. Today he was taking on the majority of playmaking duties even when he shared the floor with Turner. Starting job can't be far away.


Great words from a great man

Start Marcus and move Turner to the 2 or the 3.

Yeah.

Start Kelly too. 4 guys who can make plays with the ball, and pass.

Maybe start Prince, too. 5 guys who can do things with the ball.

If we want to win, yes.

But we don't want to win too much.

It would be interesting to see Smart, Turner, Prince, Olynyk, and Sullinger.

Smart, Turner, Zeller, (Sully or KO), Young.

let the chips fall where they may.

Don't make the playoffs under any circumstances.

That team might make the playoffs.

Bradley is going to bring us a lottery pick.

Yea, he's ready now. Probably already our best player on everybody's current form.
