I hope all the Smart haters are watching this game.

And it's not just the threes - he just comes up with so many unique plays. Already such a leader in so many ways.

and who's there to get that critical rebound --> SMART!

Crowder's ankle must still be hurting him. He looks like he's having trouble moving.

Heard someone say he said he won't be right until the summer.

You'd still think he could knock down his open shots, though. And he's had quite a few of them that he's just outright missed.

No excusing the layups/close range misses, but if he's jumping poorly off that ankle it could affect his balance and alter his shot. Needs to stop jacking up jumpers if that's the case.

Not getting a better look than that in your life Jonas

bad luck...

They can say the same thing about Korver, too...

Hey Ainge have fun trying to trade Crowder after this. Overvalued your [dang] players and kept us from getting the star that could have put us closer to where we needed to be. He's probably going to draft another ****ing bust too.

Crowder isn't going anywhere except in the starting lineup every night.

You also need to stop cursing. Thanks.

Wow, another pretty good defensive sequence, and good rebound by Smart. We need a score here.

Smart has been great tonight.  Obviously can't count on his shooting, but he's a gamer.

Actually if it comes die to the last shot and we need a three I want Smart shooting it he is a big shot maker idc what his percentages say

I mean there is cap space and a high draft pick and the fact that Crowder is obviously dealing with his ankle sprain and has a track record of success

[CelticSooner]

Watching these final 3 minutes you can just see how great the C's would be if they had just one real star that can finish games. CBS drawing up great plays that aren't being finished.

Marcus Smart- building block.

I think so

He needs to ball more in his hands. Not just stand in the corne. Geez

Marcus Smart -- great change of tempo off the bench.

Doesn't matter, still a building block.

He's going to be one, if not our most valuable off the bench guy, will make plays all around the court.

He showed up tonight.

[BudweiserCeltic]

Turner for 3? O.o

Oh what the hell was that??

[esel1000]

Lol Turner shoots the 3? Come on...

[jpotter33]

Why in the world would Turner be the one shooting that? One more pass and you have a baseline three for Smart??
