Head coach Brad Stevens is well known for his even-keeled demeanor by Celtics fans, players, and around the league. After last night’s blowout 121-97 loss to the Atlanta Hawks, (a team Boston beat just 11 days prior) Stevens made an exception. What was said to the players in the locker room after the game is unknown, but clearly he was heated:
Thomas on Stevens: "That's the most upset he's been since I've been here." — Mark Murphy (@Murf56) November 25, 2015
In the postgame press conference, he wasn’t exactly in a "Rex Ryan tirade", but by Brad Stevens’ standards, he was pretty damn angry.
