@Sccit knows how dope Marcus Smart is
Higher draft pedigree than Russ.
If he actually materializes to potentially be as good as Russ as a pro.
Then, it could be a later convo.
For now, smart is damn near a bonafide bust.
if, smart does not emerge as elite in the east for starters.
As smart was the last top tier pg of the past few years in college.
Plus, he stayed entirely to long.
So, his bust is on him.
If he never materializes into top tier at the pg position.
He should be able to but he has not impressed me.
since, the season he was supposed to leave and he stayed in school to long.
plus, he should have left after that altercation going into the stands.
It would be good, if he materializes.
As smart physically has the tools to do it just off that alone and right now,...
I don't see him as that guy he was as a freshie at OSU.
Plus, he has never instilled anything into a group from college to now as a leader to invoke more out of his group.
As, imo he gets by as a pro because he has arguably the last fully pedigreed domestic basketball coach.
Who will probably be in the league as a head coach.
