Live broadcast on July 3, smart accepted an exclusive interview with Boston Globe reporter Gary Washburn today and talked about many topics.
Smart said that he was told that he was safe the week before being traded by Celtics, and he learned that he was traded through a broker, not a team.
But Smart said he still loved the Celtics. He said: “I love this team, love this organization, I love the people here, the fans here, everyone. For nine years here, everyone has been supporting me. I will definitely miss all this, but I am also ready to start my new life in the grizzly bear.”
Smat also said that there was no contradiction between himself and Jay Brown and Tatum. He said, “Tatum and Jay Brown were brothers of my life. When my mother died, jay Brown also came to Dallas to attend her funeral. I just want to end all rumors that Jay and I have conflicts. I have no conflicts with anyone in Celtics.”
