It wouldn't be the only time that Irving showed appreciation for his new partner in Boston's starting backcourt. "I'm so grateful he's on our team, you know, really," said Irving, who might not have had a chance to hit all the big late-game shots if not for Smart's energy jolt that woke up a lethargic Celtics team in the second half when they rallied from 11 down to win.
