Was Josh Smith the prototype for modern PF's???

[#1 pick]

Intangibles, lateral quickness and BBIQ is the major difference between the two

Op i se what your saying, i dont think your that far off

I do think the Matrix is the best example of a Draymond type PF before Draymond but Josh Smith isnt bad, too bad he couldn't shoot a little better

 

[#1 pick]

I remember when the Suns had a hard on for this guy.They thought he was the missing piece back in the Nash/Amare/Marion era.

The Hawks thought he was a young superstar and never budged on a trade, tho

It was Horford who Atlanta had a hard on for. They were trying to trade Smoove every off-season. The trade that failed was Amare for Al and Josh. Atlanta wanted to trade Josh and the 13 pick but PHX wanted Al Horford. I am glad it failed but I would have loved the Amare/Horford tandem

Kevin Garnett was just a illusion?

It was Robert horry

Horry was a 6'10 big shooting 4-5 3's a game in the 90's

He was a role player but the blueprint for today's stretch 4's

There's no real one man answer but Marion is probably the closest. KG would be it but these modern PF's are just second SFs as far as size while KG was 7 feet.

Matrix

He was asked to guard damn near every position on a night to night basis, shot 4 threes a game, could rebound like a big despite being 6'7" and is a large reason why teams are playing SFs at PF right now.

So ur saying Horry would be an all star in this era and might even be a max player

Too bad he'd rather take a pull up jumper and knock the rim off than get in the paint

 

[AJtheOne]

Only in 2k was Josh Smith ever a good shooter for whatever reason he was always money in that game

No im saying the gist of the op was what horry was
