Okay, I know that scoring is a major component of being a good basketball player. But what can you honestly be disappointed in with Smart outside of that?

Yes, his shooting, shot selection, and penetration (though I think that's overblown and he's shown that he can do it regularly) have been pretty poor this year, but he's looked extremely good in pretty much every other factor of the game. His overall individual and team defense is stellar like usual. His ball-handling has definitely got better this year, and his passing ability and court vision has been MUCH better this year. All-in-all, given the context of the team and his injuries, it's crazy how much crap people give him.

TP. Let those who need to develop, develop.

bad things happen when Lee is on the floor

Yep, it's no coincidence that his on/off splits are terrible.

Main things for me are - he doesn't catch the ball well or get shots up fast enough.  But honestly him and Zeller are a wash.

Smart has a 15:1 assist to turnover ratio since his return.

Good Lord, Lee. You just get back into the rotation, yet you're still forcing bad shots.

Seemed like he was pressing to show he can contribute... backfired.

Lee is just terrible.  Stevens needs to knock it off.  No excuses.
