How do you think the offense will operate with Smart out there? We saw a taste of it with JRich this year. The spacing was completely off.
Smart is an even worse scorer than JRich. He's worse than Draymond in terms of scoring looking at raw numbers.
It'd completely ruin the spacing.
Which means Smart will have to be relegated to being the primary playmaker off the bench. I agree his playmaking will prove valuable there, but then we're relying on Brunson being the main scorer off the bench?
Dragic fills exactly what we're looking for in Smart. Dragic is a solid enough team defender, AND he can shoot it from anywhere. Not to mention the previous chemistry he has with Luka. He'll also be cheaper than Smart and won't require us to trade one of our best trade pieces.
