Review:
For Celtic, it's definitely a tough season. General manager Danny Angie has changed 80% of the team's faces after a summer's operation. Hayward, one of the most important off-season recruits, lost his money in the season after playing only two minutes in the opening game. In the middle of the season, the main players were injured constantly.
By the end of the regular season and finally to the playoffs, when the star Owen received knee surgery and reimbursed, if the Celtic team without Hayward can still rank among the top teams in the East, now the lack of Owen is a fatal blow to them, at least the hope of competing for the East championship is very slim.
After leading the Bucks 2-0 in the playoffs, they lost two games in a row, and there was almost nothing they could do to face the 2-2 score. However, there's good news for them. Smart, who has been absent for a month due to a torn ligament in his thumb, is likely to return early to help Celtic continue their playoff journey.
"The operation was very good and the effect was obvious," said smart. "Now the thumb control is very good, I think it's back to the court. I'm just waiting for the release order. "Manager Stevens also said that as long as smart can make a confrontation, he will immediately enter the list.
From the data point of view, smart's performance of 10.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game is really not impressive. But his role at both ends of attack and defense is not measurable by data. His coping ability at the offensive end is the top of the whole team. Even when Owen is present, it is still smart who plays the role of organizational guard.
On the defensive side, smart, who has both physical condition and moving speed, and some occasional small skills, often make the star guard suffer from him. For example, harden has suffered two consecutive offensive fouls on him. Obviously, after the reimbursement of Hayward, Owen and Seth, the Celtics are not likely to win the East championship, but they don't seem to want to give up the playoffs.
