    Is Josh smith the worse player ever?

    Guy thinks he's jordan. Attempted more shots than any other player. Single handily cost rockets the game

    Has the basketball IQ of a bar of soap. Absolute joke of a player. Terrific athlete. Horrible player. I wouldn't want to coach or play with him. Slow instincts or slow brain seems to be his problem. Yet no one calls him on it

    McHale is a dumbass for playing him in the fourth when the game was winnable

    High risk, high reward. When he's on, he's on. When he's off, you see what you see tonight.

    He's a very wild out of control player that's getting older.

    He had talent, but what he lacks is a high basketball I.Q. and that's why Stan Van Gundy cut him and ate the money.

    Paco - That's why Detroit got rid of him. You knew that.

    the smith bashing is well deserved, but lets not forget he has been a key cog in houstons playoff run so far

    the rockets get eliminated in game 6 without smith's playmaking in the 4th Q in LA

    yes he is flawed, but houston didnt gave up zero for him, not even draft picks. so i def think his addition is a net positive

    He has a low basketball IQ. Despite the talent he needs to be within 2 feet of the basket and open to be effective.

    I never see hate threads on white ball players play just saying. Reddick was horrible game 7, cost them the game yet nobody mentioned his name, only name mentioned was Chris Paul, a guy who beasted every game in both series while playing hurt, you guys are too much. Smith didn't have a good game overall, but he only played 21 min. did score 10 pts and did some things defensively. Couple games ago board was praising him, Howard playing hurt, 19 and 17, I suspect he'll get the hate next game.

    Name 5 good white players who start in the nba. Not international players, white players. Now, name 3 white players who are starting in the conference finals. Ok. Are any of those white players the difference between winning and losing? Now you see why no threads are made about white players. They are non factor roster holders. FYI, Reddick shouldn't be starting for the clippers, that's doc rivers fault.

    When he's on, he's almost worse, because he shoots until he's off. I know what he did in LA for Game 6, but that was the outlier of all outliers. Guy is a brain-dead player. The Ryan Leaf of the NBA.

    To be fair, you could replace "SBR" with "KKK" and no one would know the difference.

    He isn't the worse, but he might be the worst.

    Josh Smith is the worst, I still can't believe what he did in game 6 vs the Clippers though.

    Kendrick Perkins is a close second.

    Kendrick is worse. His basketball contribution consists on non basketball plays, I.e. Choking
