Marcus Smart Destroyed Children At Dodgeball To Teach Them Life Is Hard

Marcus Smart is one of the most competitive players in the NBA. The Celtics guard backs down from nobody and is a perfect representation of a bulldog type player. That chip he has on his shoulder makes him ferocious, and it’s why he can stand up to just about anyone defensively. Being built like a tank too helps, of course.

If you thought that Smart’s competitiveness was only on the court, though, then you thought wrong. Smart hates losing at anything. Some players have the ability to flip a switch when it comes to being competitive on a basketball court as opposed to a random game. Like dodgeball. With children. Does Smart have that switch? Nope.


Look at him proudly gloat about the children he destroyed in this game. That is someone that not only loves to win but takes pride in that winning. He went so far as to make it a life lesson. Children need to know that if they’re going to compete then they need to bring their A-game. Without that then you’ll have no shot against a guy like Smart.

Smart came to play. The rest did not. Now he’s the dodgeball champion while the rest of these children have to wallow in their defeat. They will have to use this loss as fuel so the next time they face Smart in dodgeball, they’ll have a chance. Until then, he’ll be training and preparing for his next battle.
