They gave up a well-regarded young point guard and two first round draft picks for Marcus Smart. I have high regard for Marcus but this seems a high price for his services as he nears his 30th birthday!

At first, I didn't like Smart, then I guess I warmed somewhat to him; liked him OK but he was never a favorite of mine. Or anything close to a fav!

If I owned Memphis, I better win it all in the next year or two or I'd be looking for a new GM. [Maybe, a player and one pick but two - for a 30 year old? . I don't think so] And where does Smart fall on the Cs? Certainly no better than third, if that.

Great trade for the Cs, especially if that young PG is a starter next year or even the year after! Harry

I should probably have said "in the rotation".
