Smart was traded away before last season's Celtics run to the NBA title. There isn’t bitterness in Smart, but more of a feeling of misfortunate and destiny simultaneously.

Marcus Smart watched from the sidelines Sunday night as his undermanned new team were dominated by the Boston Celtics at TD Garden. The ugly loss comes as no surprise for a tanking Wizards squad that benched eight roster players in the 124-90 defeat but it certainly showed just how much life has changed for the former Celtics guard in two short years.
