I am an admitted Smart hater, so this might be biased of me, but the above is kind of how I feel, too.
I think Smart's impact here would be very much chapter 3 of the book that starts with a Delon Wright chapter and then a Josh Richardson chapter. I foresee a lot of Smart trying to make things happen with the ball in his hands, just like he does in Boston to drive their fans crazy, and just like Richardson did here to drive most of us crazy.
Maybe he's so much better than Richardson that it wouldn't be an issue, idk. I'm just really skeptical.
