What a difference missing a guy makes

I saw this yesterday "As long as Boston continues to play the brand of movement-oriented defensive basketball it has of late, it should handle

Yeah so, what happened last night?

Smart and Williams did not play, and the Pistons took a game that was supposed to be easy.

For those who think that Markus Smart is not good enough for the Celtics, please take another look.

I keep seeing the term, "Core Four". We were missing two of them.

We're gonna be ahh-ight. Give us a week.

Those two have been the difference makers in the turnaround since Jan 1st.

We just need to get them some unis made of bubble wrap and armor.
