Despite significant pain, Marcus Smart on schedule with rehab
Right off the bat, when Marcus Smart says he has pain laughing and sneezing, you just know it's high on the pain scale. He has been having trouble simply moving without wincing, but none of this should make anyone think he won't be back in four more weeks. In a previous article, I compared Smart's injury and recovery to that of an Australian football player with a similar injury. That player was back in action 35 days after the injury, and his first rehab phase involved pain relief.
