Smith's remarks stem from comments Faried made following the Pistons 89-79 loss to Denver on Wednesday.

"Josh Smith, we let him keep shooting. And he ended up with 25, but he still kept shooting. He shot them out of the game."

Smith made only 9 of 22 shots against the Nuggets, as opposed to Faried, who scored 22 on 8-of-12 shooting.

The Pistons and Nuggets don't play again until Feb. 6.
