But fans didn’t see eye to eye with the Celtics guard.

As a new face, the Celtics have massive pressure on them. In the normal eyes, it looks like a near-impossible task. However, the Celtics are not new to breaking the barriers of possibilities. They pulled off a miracle in the regular season to become one of the best teams in the NBA.

In addition, they beat the defending champions and a finals team in 7 games prior to the finals. The duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen have a knack for coming up big in the pressure moments. In addition, with a defensive spearhead like Smart, things aren’t going to be easy for Stephen Curry and Dubs.
