Your feedback is helpful! What current Celtic player are You? Created by: Amir. This is not how I conduct myself, this is not how this program is run. This is not how I was raised. I let my emotions get the best of me. It was all he could do at that time. As he became a bigger name, more eyes navigated their way to Eric Prisbell's profile for USA Today , which paints Smart as a kid from troubled beginnings who had transformed himself into an unselfish, humble point guard. Since being drafted by the Celtics, Smart has made appearance for charities and done a lot of good things.
His fellow rookies clearly view him with respect, as showcased in the NBA. He was voted as the best rookie defender, along with Philadelphia's K. They also placed him third in the category of best playmaker.
Behind Twitter aficionado Joel Embiid, Smart was picked as the funniest rookie as well. Perhaps the incident was merely a terrible case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Given the information provided by the rookie survey, it is pretty obvious where Smart's strengths reside. The size and strength he presented at the college level are typically unseen in kids at his age. They will translate seamlessly into the NBA. Things will move a little faster than he is used to, but his strength and lateral quickness should cover up for a fair amount of that.
Likewise, a major thing to keep in mind is that the Celtics are not expecting him to come out of the gates guarding John Wall , Kyrie Irving and Tony Parker. Boston has a very capable starting backcourt with a fair amount of experience in Rondo and Avery Bradley. Both are also plus defenders and have been recognized by the league with All-Defensive team nods in the past. Smart will have the time to ease into this transition while using his abilities in shorter periods to really showcase his specific skills and hone the ones that need work.
The benefit Smart will have defensively is that sheer size and strength. At roughly the same height, he outweighs a player like Bradley by plus pounds. Looking at him, you know that isn't extra body fat.
It is muscle and size in the center of his body mass. When dealing with bigger guards, who nullify Bradley's crafty quickness by forcing him lower into the offensive zone, Smart will have an easier time holding ground and even forcing them out.
In transition, he has the speed to keep up with fast-breaking players and the defensive instinct of where to keep his hands. With time to think on the perimeter in the half court, Smart loses some of that instinct and overthinks, using his hands to commit fouls.
That is something NBA seasoning will teach him. What we saw from Smart in summer league should be taken fairly lightly. His shooting was atrocious, hitting Offensively, shooting likely won't be his primary game, though. That three-point shot is going to have to come along eventually,
