No! Don't give in Curm! He is not going anywhere!! I can't! Hell, didn't someone report POBO favors Smart? I'm holding onto that, because I don't want to hate POBO. If you give up, the universe will hear you and make it so! Just keep holding onto the fact that he's been traded every season by RGM and he's still here!!
If we give up Cobra to Danny Boy, you minus well pull the plug on this 2022 season. Old Danny boy about to pull a fast one on Wyc and CO. Everyone blames one guy for this mess, it’s borderline ridiculous! I’m with you Shak, I’m holding onto one of the few players that bleeds green and cares about losing!
Wait, do you know something? Just destroy me now! Pull the tape!! Let me get some hitters (unsavory folk) ready!

I honestly care more about Smart still being here after the deadline than anyone else on the team with Rob almost a tie.

Re: If It Is To Be Said. So It Be. So It Is. The First Deadline Trade Thread.
Just don’t be too down on this team for the number of close losses (and blown leads). They’re .500, they’re not as horrible as they are frustrating.

Pros to horrible
1) better pick in draft
2) ime fired
3) roster changes
4) mihutes for young guys
Pros to being 500
1) maybe lose in first round of playoffs?
Cons to being horrible
1) not making playoffs
Cons to being 500
1) we like our guys
2) we like our coach
3) treadmill

Notice how Ime busted out a no-PG lineup for the 1st time this season on a day when the rumor of both Smart and Schroder could get traded to Utah came out? I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Yes, that occurred to me as well.
January 25 is Dwynwen day (for the Welsh saint of lovers), the Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul (Eastern Orthodox), Burns night (Scotland) and National Nutrition Day (Indonesia) but in Boston it may become forever known as "Marcus Smart Departure Day" to be celebrated by every Smart hater in the universe. I would expect Fierce1 to stand a round of drinks for everyone on this forum on every January 25th to celebrate the sacred event.

Agreed, he’s a true Celtic, Bleeds Green and brings it 110 percent every game. Other teams would appreciate him but for some reason he’s the fall guy with these Green Teamers?!

Some people watch Fox News and don't get vaccinated. Other people listen to WEEI and want to trade Smart.

Smart is a good role player. He has strengths and clear flaws.
This hill you want to die on regarding Smart is old and tired. He’s available for a deal that helps this team.
