Smith needs to show he can score from the post or from the perimeter rather than just be a tremendous leaper and dunker. If he can't dunk over a 6'11" post player he can't finish..

Slam dunks look spectacular but just laying it on the glass with a shot fake counts just as many points on the score board.
I agree and I also agree with those who have stated JS had a very bad game yesterday. Still, he managed to get to the rim for what will certainly be easy buckets against teams (yes, even conference teams) who do not have a 6' 11" NBA lottery pick protecting the paint.
Smith seems very unsure of his shot. The air ball from the line was comical at the time...but when you lose by 1 on road, it was no longer comical. And Fitzner didn't seem any more locked in during the game. Losing Morgan early in the first half was a killer...tough environment for the frosh to play their first road game; having the seasoned vet of the team on the bench the entire first half made it worse.
Worst finisher I can remember. It would help a tad bit if he could at least hit his free throws.

I still believe in his finishing ability around the rim..
But Steve Hart even had a 15 ft jumper.
Smith hasn't showed me yet...He has any midrange game at all..
He need's that big time..
