Ime Udoka led the once dysfunctional Boston Celtics to rise from their ruins and stun their opponents with conviction, turning Marcus Smart into a monster in private. Boston started the season badly, but has grown exponentially well, especially on the court defensively. Jayson Tatum bolstered the Celtics with two back-to-back 7-game 7 victories against the Miami Heat and Milwaukee Bucks as poor teams to earn the Eastern Conference Title. Celtics guard Marcus Smart himself revealed Udoka’s relationship with his coach, when he brutally attacked Smart during games when needed.

“Gather your team”, Marcus Smart opens up about coach Ime Udoka
From a team sitting just outside the top tier of the Eastern Conference, four wins away from the franchise’s 18th title, the Boston Celtics kicked off the moment Ime Udoka picked up the microphone at last June’s introductory press conference. Replacing Brad Stevens, Udoka has taken the most from the Celtics roster and has pushed them into many improvements this year. Udoka in particular has turned Boston into the most dominant defensive team in the league.
The Celtics were not considered a championship contender when Marcus Smart shockingly summoned All-Star teammates Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown for refusing to pass after losing to the Bulls in November. Marcus Smart has now become an indispensable unit in this well-oiled machine from the Boston Celtics. He’s undoubtedly one of the most important players on this roster, and they probably wouldn’t be where they are now, where the Celtics coach played a monumental role as Smart explains.
“There are times when I flip the ball and he pulls me aside and says, ‘What are you doing? Bring your team together'” He said smart. “I had my own time frame to change habits and lay a foundation, a month or two into the season was not a time to kick a chair or knock over tables.” Udoka has talked about bringing change to Boston before, and she voiced her action louder than her words.
Smart isn’t exactly a mild-mannered individual himself, and perhaps this is the type of aggressive coaching he’s responding to. That seems to be the case, considering how Smart chose the Defensive Player of the Year. 2021-22 is Smart’s most successful season in the Celtics star’s career, and it’s undeniable that manager Udoka has fingerprints all over him.
Jayson Tatum’s quarterback was a very advanced skill we’ve seen from him this season, leading to 3s on corners for Boston. You could see all the improvements these core guys, including Marcus Smart, have been working on over the years in the biggest game of their careers tonight, and that led to a spot in the NBA Finals. Standing between Tatum and victory is Stephen Curry and company who will stand tall in the NBA Finals! The date awaits.
