I lost my dad a year ago at 73 to the same thing. It is not easy.

My condolences to you and the Smart family. I lost my Mom last year to cancer (she was 69).

Marcus,

You have the heart of a tiger. You can thank your Mom for that.

May she rest in peace.

My condolences....

Very sad, she passed young. I appreciate the heartfelt message he left and hope he has good support around him as he copes.  In a half-joking interview with Kevin Hart recently, IT4 named Smart his favorite teammate.  Certainly a guy I'd feel most comfortable in the foxhole with.  Head up, Marcus. We appreciate ya.

This sucks. If I recall, he always talked very highly of her and were very close (single mom?). RIP.

Prayers and condolences to the family members.

Cancer took my mother 13 years ago also.  I hope to live long enough to hear some doctor say "we have a cure for cancer".

This is horrible. If I’m remembering correctly, he lost his brother a few years back.

Marcus has been through so much, and I admire his spirit. We are lucky to have him.

RIP to Marcus' mother.

She raised one hell of a competitor.  Marcus has a fierceness to him that I have seen from very few athletes in my lifetime.  I'm sure a lot of that he gained from her.

Glad she was able to see him get his contract from us...  I feel like I had seen somewhere that she really wanted him to resign with the Celtics.  She must've been so proud of him.

Thank you. I never thought I'd lose her so soon, and you probably felt the same about your Dad.
