Boston Celtics veteran guard Marcus Smart got a chance to catch up with former teammate Terry Rozier on and off the court on Sunday, and flexed a bit in a postgame interview on a popular Boston sports media show for criticizing his defense.
Smart spoke about his reunion with Scary Terry with 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Celtics radio color commentator Cedric Maxwell after the Celtics beat the Charlotte Hornets Sunday. Soon, the conversation shifted to his defence on the former Celtic, which prompted the Flower Mound native to note that he and Rozier “have definitely had battles” but also that he hears “all the chitter-chatter about me not really being a great defender and I can’t guard faster guys, shiftier guards.”
Smart was referring to the co-hosts of the CLNS Media podcast “Garden Report Celtics Post Game Show,” particularly A. Sherrod Blakely.
