Marcus Smart declares Celtics ‘King of the North’ after Game 7 win vs. Raptors
King of the North #KingoftheNorth
You could make a real argument Marcus Smart was the MVP of the Boston Celtics’ Eastern Conference Semifinals series vs. the Toronto Raptors.
The Celtics guard made clutch play after clutch play on both sides of the court, and no play was bigger than his potentially game-saving block late in the fourth quarter of Game 7.
The C’s went on to defeat the Raptors, 92-87, and Smart wasted no time celebrating the win by expertly trolling Toronto.
Smart shared photos of himself and his teammates and declared the Celtics “King of the North.”
He also retweeted a post from the NBA’s official Twitter account that celebrated the Raptors’ Game 6 win with the team’s #WeTheNorth hashtag.
Never change, Marcus.
Now, the Celtics will be tasked with taking on the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals. That series begins Tuesday, and you can catch pre and postgame coverage right here on NBC Sports Boston.
