He's 1 for 7, 0 for 5, with 3 turnovers. He's the Mavs 1st half mvp.I'm not excusing how bad he's been the last several games. He's been straight up terrible.But, yes, every little bad thing. The dude has become so polarized that every single time he does something bad there are multiple comments calling him out about it, and similarly when he does something good there are multiple comments in response to try and balance out the rampant criticism. It's ridiculous.It's mainly certain vocal posters that have personal vendettas against Smart that drive this polarization, but the primary reason his "fan club" has to talk him up after his usual late game heroics is mainly due to the vitriol and rampant criticism that he receives from the anti-Smart crowd the rest of the time.Those posters would be much more reserved in their praise of Smart if they weren't constantly bombarded with anti-Smart propaganda in here.

Horford is out of sync tonight on offense. A half a step slow and looks mentally out of it on that end.
Too often, we judge other groups by their worst examples while judging ourselves by our best intentions.
We are playing like garbage
