Yeah I like him. He seems to have a decent handle. Seems to be a physical PG who can defend. He can drive it, dish it. Should also be able to set up decent screens for the likes of Hayward & Burks if need be. Here's an excerpt from Ford:
The real concern I guess is his shooting: FG 41.3% 3pt 29.7% FT 77%Smart is Carter-Williams' main contender for the crown of top point guard NBA prospect in the world. The two couldn't be more different. Smart's game is all about power and vocal leadership on the floor. If he ever adds a knock-down 3-pointer to his game, he's going to be very tough to stop in the NBA.
But he seems to have that Russell Westbrook feel about him. He's not shy to take it off the dribble and can finish it at the rim.
Freakazoid = Matt Harpring. Just ask him - he won't deny it.

What I'm most excited about though is we now have 4 legit PGs going in the top 20.
Considering we'll have our own pick as well as the GSW pick (who should continue to fade if Curry injury persists), we should be able to pick up at least 1 decent PG from this crop.

I disagree. There are 4 PG's in a fairly weak draft positioned there partially because the PG crop has been weak for a while. There is nothing here to be too excited about other than the hope someone outperforms what would normally be a somewhat mediocre projection.
Not hating, but no one here is highly thought of .. but rather better than the alternatives.
(I know that sucked)

Hmmm.. not sure how realistic that is though...
FA: can we really get anyone decent to come to play here?
Trade: unless we're willing to give up Favors/Kanter/Hayward, I don't think anyone will bite.
Plus... when somebody great comes along in the draft, there's 0% chance we'll get them because Greg will not let us have another losing season ever again.
In conclusion, I seriously think we're stuck with this senario: Favors/Kanter/Hayward + a decent young PG
