I just lost a post in the other thread on Tatum due to "connection problems". You can't get it back.
The other thread had about 50 members and 348 (!) guests viewing the post!
Houston, we have a problem here. Can we screen out the guests during busy periods so we don't write wasted posts?
Sorry for the digression.
Yeah, Jackson and Smart would have been a nice nasty pair. But they like a kid who can shoot the eyes off the ball. Think Bird or Pierce. They do need scoring up front. Of course, they also need defense up front.
I didn't think they could go wrong with either Tatum or Jackson. Everybody thought Jackson because the Celtics are defense oriented. But maybe they though it was time for offense, and they had enough nasties who can't shoot.
It's a sign also that they aren't in the trading market--with the #3, anyways.
