This episode makes me appreciate Marcus Smart even more. Why? Because based on everything in Smart's history that should have led him to be an angry, out-of-control, emotional basket case, he has somehow channeled everything in his past towards a determination to get better and play the right way. He has the occasional outburst -- that shove on Embiid from late in last year's regular season comes to mind -- but that has become the exception rather than the rule. Got to be impressed by Smart's self-discipline, given what he's endured in his life.
