I’m getting some really legit Ish Smith vibes from this whole deal with Tim Frazier. I can’t decide if that’s good or bad. It should be a good thing, these vibes that I am receiving. Then I could call them, maybe, “good vibes”. But, as we know, Ish kind of turned into a huge chucker for some reason. He was supposed to be a pure PG, the kind of guy who would pass a thousand times before shooting. Now he’s a scorer who can make good passes sometimes.
I don’t want that to happen to Frazier. I saw that he only had 2 assists tonight, and the vibes that he was emitting developed a significantly darker tenor. I know that it’s hard, not having Anthony Davis to pass it to. I understand. I just fear that the natural enjoyment of putting the ball in the bucket will get the best of him.
