On Josh Smith's waning athleticism: He has 10 dunks through 28 games. He had 123 in 76 games for Atlanta two years ago.

If DET woulda did this earlier, maybe they could've kept Monroe.

Now they're looking at a total rebuild since Greg is gone next summer

Can't build around Drummond cause tbh he might be even worse than Osh on the offensive end

Pistons going for a Timberwolves type drought, no playoffs for you anytime soon

As ESPN.com reported in both June and July, Sacramento tried to trade for Smith, offering various packages that included the likes ofJason Thompson, Derrick Williams and Carl Landry. The Pistons ultimately resisted all such overtures.

The Pistons, sources said, ultimately passed on multiple opportunities to trade Smith to Sacramento because Van Gundy wanted to give their partnership a chance first before dealing him away too hastily. But Detroit's new management duo of Van Gundy and general manager Jeff Bower quickly concluded that a change was needed and promptly put Smith back on the market, only to discover through shopping him aggressively in recent weeks that no team besides the Kings had any interest.

Another person that has not watched josh smith play


Those players would COOK smith if he tries to guard them

Well considering we have no defense or height whatsoever at the 2 and 3 positions and no athletes on the team besides Blake and DJ anything is an upgrade at this point

Josh Smith is that nikka on 2K that puts his power forward @ shooting guard

The thing is the Spurs run a complicated system offensively...

these foreigners were born into systems like this so it comes easy to them...

That's why Diaw could come in and be effective right away...

Which is why if you're stupid, it's going to be tough. Josh Smith has been playing in retarded isolation systems for most of his career.

I didn't know Chuck was that bad. My foggy memory of him as a player remembers him knocking them down clutch 3's.

In his suns days he got better. But as a Philly player he wasn't that good. But to be fair Philly didn't shoot a lot of threes and most teams didn't. The suns and rockets of the early 90s really started all this three point shooting we see now.

 

[M.C. LOGIC]

I knew SVG was fed up but I didn't think he would go hard like that but fukk it...J. Smith needed to go.



Hopefully this will give a spark to the team. It's painful seeing my squad lose night after night. I was hoping they would at least get the 8th seed in the East but they can't even sniff .500.
