Josh Smith is a simple man. He enjoys the simple nuances of life. Josh Smith flys for highlight dunks, soars over all other for blocks, but overall wants to keep it simple.
Why does this matter? The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ran a story (which I found on RealGM) on the Hawks new team focused offense. With the departure of Joe Johnson, the team can focus on running the offense through multiple players. When asked about the new philosophy, Josh Smith summed it up amazingly,
“Sometimes simple is better. Sometimes I’d rather have a pizza than a Kobe steak, mashed potatoes and gravy. Sometimes you want to keep it simple where guys can get the hang of it and understand it.”
Yes Josh. That’s exactly how I would sum it up! A super simple meal is pizza. Steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, that’s way too complex! Dinner choices and basketball, all in one awesome quote. Hope the move away from isolation basketball suites you well, Josh Smith!
