Smith also expressed his admiration for the Wizards’ GM and coach. However, he also spoke the harsh truth and said, “The Washington Wizards at this particular moment in time are atrocious. They are horrible, and it’s primarily because of their defense.”
He ended up quoting Beal who said, “We can’t guard a parked car” and spoke up about the clip that went viral. He interpreted, “That is the sign of somebody who is about to lose it. They can’t take it anymore. That’s where he’s at.”
Finally, he ended up calling out the GM and coach and stated, “You got to get Bradley Beal out of there. He’s a tremendous asset, but you have got to get him out of there.”
Bradley Beal and the LA Clippers?
Not only did Smith vouch for Beal’s trade, he also suggested a potential destination.
“If there is any way, the Clippers can get Bradley Beal to pair with Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, you do it because I think that’s their chance of coming out of the West,” he explained.

“How can the Clippers possibly position themselves to win the chip? By getting somebody like Bradley Beal. With a Paul George, with a Kawhi Leonard, Lord have mercy. That could potentially be special.”
Smith made it clear that the Clippers are no threat to the Lakers this year. However, that could change if Beal was a part of that team.
Bradley is leading the league in scoring and yet, the Wizards are one of the worst teams in the East. There is definitely something wrong and if he doesn’t want to remain stuck there, Beal and the Wizards should do some quick thinking.
