I'd love to see him slimmed down and quicker than in the past.

If he can get a little burst back his ceiling as a player increases substantially.

I think the "Smart is fat" stuff was overblown. He's a thick-built guy, that's the way he'll always be. If you put a baggy jersey over that same image above you'll still have people calling him overweight just because that's his body.

But he does look like he's in terrific shape.

He was never "fat" but I think he was trained to focus on mass, versus sort of lean/plyometric-type building.  Maybe this is a result of the change in training the Cs are taking.

I think it has more to do with our glut of wings and Bradley being gone. He'll be covering 1s a lot more than last year, and probably won't be covering 3s at all. That means he can focus less on being bigger and me on being faster
I'm bitter.

Good to see Smart working so hard this summer to improve his game. He's got a big contract year coming up.

Is it just me, or does he look significantly thinner and actually ripped? You can't tell me he had those abs this past season when everyone was calling him fat!

Perhaps the coaching staff did ask him to bulk up last year to play bigger, and now that we have a million wings and he has zero reason to play the 3 he's slimming back down. That'd probably do wonders for his game.

I would love to see the physiques of posters that regularly call Marcus fat or tubby.

I bet you would.

Um, are we sure that Sully has ever even seen his abs? Lol

I think there's quite a big difference between what we're seeing from Smart here and this:

Marcus Smart gets fatter as the season progresses

some people don't handle eating late....without gaining some weight...  Even after an intense game/workout session

I'm glad you've found a new target to criticize about weight.  You must really have missed Sullinger last year to move into Smart.

I can't wait to see your enlightened takes on Yabusele.

Unless my memory is failing me, Smart looked to have come in this past season with a bit of extra weight and trimmed down as the season progressed.

don't you remember Tommy stating Marcus gained weight in the 2nd half of the 2nd half...thus his decrease performance?

he didn't have the "snap" as he did earlier in the season. And I agree with Tommy
