Marcus Smart - 6/10

Stat line: 7 points, 6 assists, 2 steals, 3 turnovers on 2-9 FG's

Even in a bad game, Smart seemed to have filled the stat sheet but only few box scores look great with a 2-of-9 shooting from the field. He also committed 3 turnovers. Similar to the rest of the guys, he had one shot too many outside the team's offense, which obviously didn't help the C's chances of making a comeback.
