[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1354684"] "There is no way you can say Mark Smith is not the best player on this team". Really? 3-4 years from now, I think we'll look back and agree that Mark Smith was the best player on this roster. But RIGHT NOW, he is not the best player on this team. Or at least he's not giving us the most all-around production. Aaron Jordan is probably the top performer at the moment. Leron Black #2. Alstork is more limited offensively, but is playing much better defense -- and that's important. So you can make a reasonable argument that at best, Mark Smith is #4 right now. All that said......Smith has the highest ceiling, and I really want to see him get as many minutes as possible. But I can understand the logic in sitting him if the defense just isn't there. [/QUOTE]
