Choo Choo

Smary Train Coming back around.

All aboard!!


This train will be leaving this station in a couple days and won't be back for another month or so. Get on early while you still can.


Golden State is gonna tank for us so we can get the 14th pick. Then we package that with ours to move up and get Smart. Hopefully he doesn't go too high. Maybe 10th overrall? He probably will still be out of reach but here's to hoping.

I like Marcus Smart but when you consider we'd almost certainly have to give up Hayward, Favors, or Kanter to get him no thanks.

What?

You don't think thats a little overboard?

He's going in the top 5 for sure. I think it would take Hayward + 15 or so to move to the top 5 and it would take Favors or Kanter straight up. Remember you're always going to have to overpay for top level draft picks as the draft is taking place. I'd give up Hayward and the better of our picks for a guy like Shabazz, but Smart just doesn't do it for me. Watching him today he's solid, but no way is he a star. Good defender, decent handle, but mediocre scoring instincts. He's going to look distinctly overweight and a little slow at the next level and he can't shoot.
