The rest of Smith's offensive game is still lacking. He doesn't shoot jumpers effectively at all, and he doesn't handle the ball especially well, either.

Dan Rosenbaum's NBA Blog. For the huddled masses that enjoy collective bargaining agreement details and statistical analysis. Wednesday, August 17, 2005. A Mea Culpa by Mark Cuban.
