    Almost cost the Lakers with his boneheaded plays...

    Looks back, sees a Suns player trailing him for that wide open layup, still decides to do a behind-the-back pass.

    Instead of holding the ball and waiting for Luka+Bron to come, he decides to take advantage of a bait play and got his floater blocked.

    Then fouls Allen for no reason.

    Guess we can still lose 20 point leads when Smart starts.

    Yikes on some of those horrible decisions. I love Smart’s D but he has a bit of a savior complex here and he’s trying to do too much that isn’t necessary when you have Luka and LeBron (and Reaves when healthy). Marcus needs to just focus on the 3s and D.
