Marcus Smart hopes to play tomorrow vs Bucks in Game 4

Marcus Smart gets hurt a lot with the no-holds-barred style of play he's known for.

Mercifully for the Boston Celtics (and the chagrin of their foes), he heals preternaturally fast, too. And with his most recent damage, a torn oblique sustained in a largely meaningless game against the Washington Wizards at the end of Boston's regular season, keeping him out of the postseason so far, a Celtics team struggling to defend the Milwaukee Bucks in the Eastern Conference Semifinals couldn't need his help more.
