I guess he, and we, will take a fine over a suspension.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

He needs to cool it the rest of this year, don't need him suspended for any games in regular season or playoffs given how our rotation has shook out.

He deserves it. That was a clear case of misdirected anger

At least he wasn't suspended.

He was clearly distracted last night and played poorly, until the 4th quarter.

Agree on both counts.

I have no doubt he was REALLY angry at himself AND embarrassed.......he cares....A LOT.

I'll take the passion with the warts.

It's what makes him so great.

Hopefully he'll realize that his actions can negatively impact the team.

I'm still holding out hope.

Fines should be collected paid out to charity by the NBA if they don't already do it.

Good point, 60's.  I think that anger was a disguise for his disgust over fouling Lavert. He cost us the game, and he realized it.

He's making $12,946,428 this year.  That's $157,883 per game if you're counting.  Getting docked less than a quarter of a night's work isn't so bad for throwing a little hissy fit.
Yup

Pretty much expected. He really did lose his cool.

Took until the 4th quarter last night to sort of get his head back

Sure. But still blaming that loss on Brad Stevens and the lack of defense. You don't allow 51 points in the 4th quarter. EVER.

Should have been Brad Stevens getting that fine, but he is too nice and thoughtful for such competitive behavior.
No wonder Smart gets frustrated with the guy. Never trade Marcus.

Was Brad out there playing Defense, Nope.   So your assertion is very poor.   It is a combination of players and the coaches.
