As the game was almost at stake, the Kings just made it through swinging across with the tiny margin score of 109-107 in overtime. At the end of the Regular season, Desmond Bane missed a tying basket and there were some calls from the referees that did not go in favour of the team, and fans and players got mad. During the timeout, Smart’s reaction toward the referees was visibly unacceptable, along with subsequent disqualification from the game which followed.
Smart in his insignificant ejection, reflected his passion and deep commitment to his team’s success, albeit a bit unfiltered he had it. The Grizzlies, being out of the playoffs this season, will most likely benefit from Smart’s emotional intensity towards winning because they could be laying a foundation for the team they want to have in the future.
Although some may argue that the ejection may seem small, however, it tells us that it is not really foreseeable at the NBA and gradually adds to other weird incidents observed during this season Even though Smart’s untimely removal from the game was not a turn toward its conclusion, it provided energetic viewers with a short moment of intrigue and entertainment as fans of basketball.
With the ever-evolving NBA season, the supporters can only expect what other unthinkable twists and turns there could be to the season while knowing that Marcus Smart’s ejection from the sidelines would remain one of the most season-related episodes.
