Marcus Smart shines, Boston gets first Summer League win

The Celtics beat the San Antonio Spurs. Enjoy that sentence because you may never hear those words again this season.

After a rough first quarter, the Celtics roared back behind a 15 point 2nd quarter by Marcus Smart and never looked back going on to win 85-71 (box score).

In that second quarter the Celtics offense looked a lot better with Smart and Rozier sharing point guard duties. Smart has shown an improved shooting stroke, and has even looked to post up a couple of times which could be huge if he could translate the skill to the regular season.
