ALL EFFORT!

In the good and bad that Marcus Smart did in this game, one thing was consistent - his effort. He can certainly do better than 5 turnovers and 2-of-8 shooting but on the other hand, he was the team's second-best all-round player after Rozier and his box score is proof of that.

The Celtics weren't tentative on offense like they were in Game 3, but still their offense depends on scoring by committee - everybody has got to step up. 5 of Smart's 8 points came really late in the game when it was pretty much certain which team was taking this game home.

Smart has been shooting abysmally from the field this postseason, and he has to turn it up at least to league-average efficiency to be a marked positive in games when he's not able to play the pick-and-roll offense.
