Marcus Smart has grown up so fast.
The Boston Celtics guard demonstrated his feelings for his current hometown Monday in a short message he shared via Twitter. Smart described himself in the post — we imagine as something akin to a love letter to Boston — as a boy from the south who has matured into a card-carrying “Bostonian.”
Boston: You have raised me for the last 4 years as I have gone from a naive southern kid to a championship starved Bostonian. I won't settle for anything less than banner #18.

The link to the order form contained in Smart’s tweet has another message from the Celtics guard.
“You see me dive on the floor and take a charge and give it everything I have… ,” he wrote. “I go out there every day and play like it’s my last. – Marcus.
“Marcus shows Boston his love every night, now show him some love back!”
