Positive Spin: Marcus Smart is going to help shore up this struggling bench a bit. Remember early on in camp when the bench was beating out the starters? Remember how often Smart has been called a leader? He’s exactly the kind of guy we need in games, especially defensively. He alone could change so much of what’s gone wrong so far.
Negative Spin: How bad is it that we’re already crying for Smart to come back so our defense, which hasnt’ been great thus far, can go back to being elite? Is this one guy THAT important?
