“I’ve always been told you have more time than you realize you have,” Smart said. “I was about to throw it to Al off the dribble and I saw JT cut at the last minute.”“I think that's kind of a microcosm for our season, guys moving the ball being unselfish," coach Ime Udoka said. Boston charged out of halftime with a 23-8 run to open a 82-69 lead, sparked by Smart’s dead-eye shooting from beyond the arc.

But Irving was good from deep on the next time down the floor give the Nets a 114-111 cushion.In his latest trip to face his former Boston teammates, Irving received the loudest jeers during pregame introductions and was booed whenever he touched the ball the rest of the way.
