I'm not gonna lie, I thought the same thing. But he was all up in LeBron's ass last nite, no homo.
Lebron didn't play with a whole lot of heart it didn't seem like. Of course I didn't see the entire game. But that's how it came off to me.
Josh Smith isn't a player you shut down on his own. He gets alot of garbage points. If the Mavericks as a team stop the Hawks from running they will stop Josh Smith.
Josh will get tons of putback dunks with no Damp and Josh to cleanup the defensive glass, because Diop goes to block EVERYTHING in the paint. So if Lue or whoever penetrates, all they have to do is get it over Diop and the offensive glass on the reverse side is always open.
Devin Harris is on pace for like 50 with 10 pts now to ATL's 12, out there looking like a damn vet. That dunk Horford had on Diop was serious too, I was impressed the time he lead the break too. I figured he could bring the ball up uncontested in a straight line, but there was defense and he made a nice little hesitation move then swung it to the corner.
Yea no post moves though. He's hitting Dirk with the lean right cross left crossover then finishing at the rim (no dunks yet). And Dirk has too passive this season
