We Have Final 4 Team Next Year...

[Boiler Buck]

Smith lost a couple assists per game on passes for easy baskets to Furst that were fumbled, blocked etc. Cluff and Jacobsen should convert better. Mayer and Murphy also might convert at a higher rate.

Furst particularly and many times Colvin & Heide were black hole of not only no assist, but TOs or just bricked shots going the other way. H & C improved late and hope they continue for their new teams.

FWIW, Matt stated years ago he would like to get to the point of playing two PGs at the same time. Not sure if that has changed, but I'm sure his thought that playing two PGs still has some desires

Yes I remember hearing that. A good example of that desire clicked with me watching Dee Brown and Deron Williams play together. Sidenote, there's that 3 guard line up philosophy taking shape also.

Ripe for an upset..
Like every team...

Except Indinia. No defeat would be considered an upset.

He will love having Jacobson rolling to rim as lob threat off screens.

yes, assists will be shared a bit more and a higher percent of would be assists might be converted and so trying to figure out how that plays into Braden's assists is yet to be known

Wonder IF smith can be a bit more rested (I still think he will play 35+), it will result in be even more efficient and no drop off really from assists.

I think 35 is about right and it should help his shooting and overall focus some

Not competitive? Lower tier NBA team? Borderline NBA playoff team? NBA potential title contender?

They would provide a day of rest for NBA starters. They would lose 82 games to second and third units.
