The Boston Celtics should give the incredibly versatile, Marcus Smart solid minutes at the center position.
Throughout the duration of the NBA’s suspension, I have spent most of my time thinking about the Boston Celtics, the NBA playoffs, and different ways the C’s could use their lack of size as an advantage.
After months of brainstorming, one specific hypothetical kept creeping back into my mind: a small ball lineup with Marcus Smart guarding opposing centers.
That may sound crazy to some, but, frankly, what can’t Smart do defensively?
