Marcus “Maahcus Smaaht” Smart is currently shooting considerably better from distance than last year, when he notched a sweet 25% mark on four attempts per game. It’s still early, though, so I hold out hope that Smart will regress from his current 38% clip and I can continue to mock him for his comically unaware…

Marcus Smart 20 Points Full Highlights (4/24/2016)
You win, Boston. You win. I’m not even going to make fun of Marcus Smart in this description. I want to. But I won’t, because your victory over me is total. Smart is a deeply flawed player who is an easy target for my venomous tongue. It would be so easy to talk about how…

A lot of mean-spirited people have not nice things to say about Marcus Smart. He’s ugly. He takes a ridiculous amount of threes for how well he shoots them. He’s a positionless combo guard ineffective in every conceivable role one could come up with for him. He has ugly hair. He has no respect for…

These highlights just aren’t the same without the Boston commentating crew. Tommy Heinsohn/Mike Gorman rasping “Mahcuss Smaht” after every Marcus Smart triple would have really put this thing over the top. Instead, we get the Magic commentators acting incredulous that Smart could hit so many triples. I mean, I don’t blame them at all for…
Read MoreMarcus Smart Triple Double 10 pts/11 asts/11 rebs Full Highlights (1/15/2015)
If Marcus Smart was LeBron James or Russell Westbrook, the NBA would take a look at this triple-double. But he isn’t, and they won’t, so it’s all good. All the assists are, at least, instances where he passed the ball (unlike that Giannis trip-dub). There was an offensive rebound that was kind of iffy, where,…

Something is wrong with me. A grievous affliction, of unknown origin. I have talked to many a medical professionals, and even after repeated examinations, they can find no illness, no malady, that explains what has been tormenting me. I can’t get hyped for Marcus Smart. My hype-forming glands are still in perfect working order. This…

Did Marcus Smart and Jared Sullinger coordinate their hair or something? Both of them are sporting some kind of bleached mohawk. I’m not hip enough to know whether there is a different name for that hairstyle but I am DEFINITELY hip enough to know that I am smhing every time one of these dudes shows…
Read MoreMarcus Smart 19 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Normally, when a player is a horrible shooter, percentage wise, he gets called out on it by every possible source. His team’s fans, other team’s fans, the general NBA punditry (I include myself in this category), fans from his college days, his mom, everybody. So why is Marcus Smart not receiving any flak for shooting…
Read MoreMarcus Smart 15 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (4/4/2015)
Where’s Tommy Heinsohn when you need him? His commentary style is equal parts annoying homer crap and semi-entertaining old-guy rambling, but him freaking out after a Marcus Smart game-winner is just what I needed after a tough Bucks loss. Instead we get some random dude who I don’t even know who he is but I…

How am I supposed to write a description when Hawks-Warriors is going on RIGHT NOW? Dammit. Fine. Marcus Smart is a basketball player. A good one. Despite his volcanic complexion, he has shown himself to be capable of taking shots with the basketball, as well as passing the basketball so that others may attempt shots….
