Are we looking at the same Rodney Hood? Funny how the playoffs start and Rodney forgot his big boy pants. And no not just with the Cav's. Numbers don't lie. https://www.foxsports.com/nba/rodney-hood-player-stats?seasonType=2 Smart doesn't back down and doesn't need to score to impact a game...

Question is how the hell are the C's going to prioritize Smart when Kyrie will be a FA next year? Irving makes 20 mill this year and that will darn near double next year. I say we continue to force teams to match and if they don't we come out with a talented player with more money to play with...

I didn't proofread my post but I agree that Parker is a below average defender. My point is i think this team needs a stretch 4 as well as a lock down wing defender. Parker checks 1 of the boxes but not both.

SIGN SMART. He's the only FA that kills 2 birds with one stone.

He's definitely a day 1 starter from his defense alone. This kid has some serious 2 way potential and to think he's just getting his sea legs under him. I can't wait for mid season when we start seeing his play making ability.

This team needs a wing defensive stopper but a guy who's body fits a profile. If you sign Parker because you think he can be a good stretch 4 then I'm all for it but that fills 1 need but not both. Reality is we probably aren't capable to fill both needs in one off season so grabbing one of the...

The fascination with Capella baffles me. Also your trade for Porter????????? Not going to happen for many reasons.

If all is equal and you had the choice of Jabari Parker or Marcus Smart, who would everyone prefer? lets say 16-17 mill a year

That would be awesome. 15 mill a year for an all NBA defender and good 3 pt shooter. Sign me up! Although i have no idea what would need to happen for that to come to fruition.

Great point. I was more alluding to his psyche. I may have made premature comments I'm hoping because we need JJ to be serviceable. I guess i was just trying to drive the point home that if he gets stronger he will be more confident on the floor. In theory.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The mental make up of a player is a huge part of the battle in professional sports. Everyone has talent, but its the guys that have an edge between the ears that prevail. JJ has all the talent but when hes in a room full of alphas he seems to disappear and that's a real concern going forward...

GO GET LAVINE! I hope this smoke turns to fire.

https://theundefeated.com/features/sacramento-kings-harry-giles-could-do-big-things-next-nba-season/ Great read! How can you not root for this guy?

I'm all for anyone that can D up on the wing. I love what @Sac.Kings said about the bulldog mentality. Giles absolutely has it and the idea of adding another dog would bring a toughness Kings fans have only seen from Doug Christie. This team is still developing so I'm not worried about the...

I'd be happy with either. Lavine has more upside to be a 20+ ppg scorer but Smart would fill a major role on this team. He could start next to fox and Bogie and be able to guard the best perimeter player on each team. Think a Rich man's Tony Allen.

Highlights don't tell the hole story. I'd like to think that most who went to the game probably feel this kid is going to be starting very soon if not day 1.

100% am in agreement with you. They complement each other extremely well. My favorite part of the game was when Bagley was late to close out on Wagner in the corner so he had to run him off the line and and as Mo drove Harry saw him and hedged, allowing Bagley to hustle back for a rim protecting...

His defensive awareness is really the only negative thing i noticed at the game. Albeit he is learning a new defense so his rotations where slow. Once he gets acclimated to the scheme i'm confident his natural instincts for the game will kick in and he will be reacting much quicker as his career...

His demeanor is very KG like. My favorite part of his game at this moment is his tenacity and awareness on D. His can move his feet, block shot and make the correct rotations. He and Bagley are going to pair perfectly together in time. Fox also looks noticeably bigger than last year. cant wait...
