0:26.1

This is a monumental win for the Boston Celtics.

0:28.6

I know, listen, Marcus Smart is a key part of what they have been about, a big part of their

0:32.9

culture defensively, their toughness, all of those things.

0:35.4

That's a huge loss.

0:36.6

But what you get back in

0:37.7

Last year, he stayed on the court, and you saw what he is capable of doing when he does that. This is a huge deal for the Boston Celtics. In addition, they pick up two first-round picks.

1:44.6

Can't say enough about how much I love this for the Celtics.
