Celtics Point Guard Marcus Smart returned from the ankle injury he suffered vs Philadelphia 76ers and played a magnificent game vs the Brooklyn Nets. As usual Smart made his winning plays while also catching fire from 3, hitting 5 of his 6 3-pointers. He finished the game with 15 PTS, 6 AST, 2 STL and a +23 while on the floor in his 30 minutes. Boston cruised to a 129-106 victory on Thursday night and are now 10-1 in their last 11 games and sit in the 6th seed, only 4.5 games back of the top-seeded Bulls. The Garden Report crew weighs in on Marcus Smart's recent play and discuss if this is best version of Marcus Smart Celtics fans have seen since entering the NBA.
