I can't stand Rozier....

[ozgod]

Not watching - what happened?

Smart made 2 good defensive plays got called for fouls on both then got a T for showing frustration, then after he made a bucket he started jawing with Bembry and got his second T them he charged Bembry. That’s it in a nutshell

[jpotter33]

Come on Terry, finish a [dang] drive!!

God, that was such a stupid decision. Just classic terrible decision-making by Rozier.

[RJ87]

Another failure of Stevens. All you had to do was take him out.

Disagree.  Smart is a professional.  He has to be trusted to keep his temper in check. 

That's 100% on Smart.

You could see it from a mile away. All you had to do is take him out and sit him for 2 mins.

I think the 2nd tech was unwarranted. Ref was too quick to blow the whistle.

This has NOTHING to do with Stevens. Smart got a little too Smart for his and his team's own good. This is him punching the mirror again. Stupidity that cost him from helping his team for several games, most likely.

Fortunately it doesn't happen often -- and I was beginning to think he might be past it, but when Marcus' fuse is truly lit, it doesn't go out easily.

He also almost knocked over a ref and knocked down a couple of security guys.

Stupid decision making is not good for a point guard....

Hawks announcer: "That was a TERRIBLE shot by Rozier!"

Thank you... Stevens isn’t perfect and has made mistakes this season but some of the criticism is really unwarranted. Why would he take him out? He was providing excellent energy. The calls were awful and Smarts reaction was completely on him.

[cltc5]

Hawks announcers are clueless

[ozgod]

If that episode doesn’t light a fire under the Cs nothing will

[Rosco917]

Can this Celtic team show some passion and take control of this game, please.

Move the ball!

Exactly. If I could see it festering on the freaking couch Stevens should have too

Yeah, I think you are all alone with this take. Stevens holds no responsibility for this, this was all Smart. If you think Stevens holds any responsibility for this, you just got something against Stevens.

[Neurotic Guy]

How was that even possible?

[SCeltic34]

Our defense has really picked up.  Too bad we can't secure the rebound.
