Live bar April 20, Celtic player Smart was named the best defensive player. Today he spoke to the Boston Globe in an interview to dismantle his defensive performance in series G1 victory over the Nets.
He said: "Brown's threat is not as good as KD's, nor as smooth as Clarkston's, so you have to choose your poison." If Clarkston gets to the basket, it will be a very easy layup. So I happen to be in the right position and don't let them score in the easiest way possible. ”
"You have to know where you are on the pitch [when you make an offensive foul]. First of all, you can't be in the box, and secondly, you can't let your opponent bump into your side. Then you have to accept the opponent's collision and can't escape. If the opponent hasn't hit you yet and you're down, that's blocking. If you turn around, it's also blocking. ”
"For me, it's just a way of guarding the basket. I'm not Robert Williams, no amazing bounces. So for me, I had to accept the impact of my opponent and risk injury to complete the basket. ”
