Mark Followill asked it best: How did he find him in the corner? Smith was aggressive in this game, but didn’t just go blazing into the paint every time down the floor, either. He changed speeds, drove looking to pass, and took whatever shots were there. Smith scored just seven points on nine shots but this was not a bad game for him by any stretch, as strange as it might seem. He kept his foot to the floor, consistently spread the ball around the floor, and played in-your-face defense on Ricky Rubio, which really went in a long way in knocking the Jazz out of rhythm in the first half.
