Mike Smith at Miami Heat - Atlanta Hawks game?
I'm watching the second half of tonight's Miami Heat - Atlanta Hawks game and as the camera pans over the Hawks bench, just at the bottom of the screen, a familiar face appeared, if only partially. In that moment, my brain said, "Oh hey, there's Mike Smith."
Then I thought I must be mistaken, I would have heard if he'd made an NBA roster (or an NBA coaching staff, which seems maybe about as likely?).
But sure enough, it seems he's been playing for the Sioux Falls Skyforce, who are associated with the Miami Heat. I guess given the association he was able to score some nice tickets to tonight's game.
Anyway, here's half of Mike Smith's face.

Mike Smith is also really close with Jimmy Butler which is probably the primary reason he’s there

Oh good call, I'd forgotten about that. Makes even more sense.
He also played on the Heats G League team as well
Do you mean the Sioux Falls Skyforce, the team mentioned by the OP?
No, the other team in Sioux Falls, silly
In addition, he plays for the Skyforce, Miami's G league affiliate.

Seeing half of Mike Smith’s face is so fitting.

I always have a special spot in my heart for basketball players under 6' tall.

Those NBA cameras are so height biased.
April 20...and two thirds of Mike Smith's head is the news. Looks as though it is going to be a long summer...as we wait with bated breath for our favorites young men to kick it off.
I was thinking the same thing.
It's 6:30 AM and like a junky, I'm logging in, desperately hoping for my MGoBlog fix, and what do I get? Half of Mike Smith's face.
Maybe I'll complain about the post's title, or scour the comments looking for a typo to bitch about. Something, anything to churn some action.
April 20 . . . and it's a rough day for weeding and hashing through all the comments that mushroom here.

I'd like to give you an extra upvote for getting "bated breath" right.

Yeah, well I'd like to debait that point.
I love ya, guy, but the off season is clearly hard times for all of us!
