102202, Josh Smith - freak athleticism + a bit more sanity
Posted by MothershipConnection, Thu May-31-12 07:05 PM
I actually like his game a lot, he could be a steal for an uptempo team at the 4 spot. He's a bit of a flake, but shown the ability to reign it in, good finisher on offense, shoots well enough for teams to play him honest (but takes enough bad jumpers to drive a coach crazy). Defensively, he'll get pushed a bit by bigger 4s in the post, but should play the weakside well, and he's athletic enough that you could stick him on bigger 3s (Carmelo/Durant) to bother them. Basically a Josh Smith or young Kenyon Martin type minus some athleticism.
