I disagree with the characterization of random hard nosed defenders as you are probably describing the 10 day guys. These are guys who can play legit defense but their offensive liabilities have caused them to not find a spot in this league.
In this day and age regardless of the defense you build around, you need elite offense as well. Especially in the playoffs where all defenses step up. I would certainly take a chance on Sabonis before Smart. Not because I don’t understand the liabilities that Sabonis brings or the intangibles that Smart brings. I am weighing both and I would go with Sabonis. You want to go the other way. I can perfectly understand your line of thought. There are no easily correct answers here.
That is something that I can agree with. Just want to highlight that Sabonis comes with a bigger price tag. That´s why I am coming to a different conclusion.
