He won a championship with the Spurs in 2003.
Smith is widely regarded as an excellent 3-point shooter and an experienced veteran. Smith is a two time all-star and won a gold medal with the Olympic USA basketball team in 2000 at Sydney.
Smith began the 2004-05 season with the newly-formed Charlotte Bobcats, but was re-acquired by the Heat at the February 24 2005 trade deadline in exchange for Malik Allen .
