Marcus Smart had 6 assist in his first Grizzlies appearance (24 minutes). that equals Dillon Brooks’ season high last year. I think the offense will flow a lot better without Brooks taking his highly contested fadeaway step back jump shots and 3 pointers.

    I agree with you.

    Bane will take off — he’s a smart player who lets the game come to him, so Brooks being a black hole took shots away from him. He is going to break out even more this year.

    Smart will handle backup PG duties and is a better player than Tyus overall. He can also handle the on-ball defensive duties that Brooks was taking.

    I see it as an upgrade once Ja is back.
