Report: Marcus Smart and Celtics Frustrations Boil over after Game 2 Loss
Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart was reportedly not happy after The Celtics lost Game 2 on Thursday 106-101 to the Miami Heat.
According to Malika Andrews of ESPN and Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe, Smart could be heard loudly yelling profanities from the locker room.
The Point Guard was understandably frustrated, the Celtics held a 13-point lead heading into the half but were outscored by 20 points in the third quarter. After two huge hustle plays by Jimmy Butler on the defensive end and clutch shooting from Goran Dragic, Boston failed to recover in the fourth.
It's unclear what the specifics of the argument were, and who Smart was arguing with but we do know Smart is frustrated from the loss. The Celtics are now 0-2 in the series.
