The latest reports on the Celtics disappointing season comes from Athletic writer and NBA Insider, Jared Weiss, shared why some of the players might have had a problem with former head coach Brad Stevens. In the article he wrote:
"Team sources suggest Smart was alone in trying to establish that accountability last season, with teammates often tuning him out. It reached a boiling point when he and Jaylen Brown were involved in a heated confrontation after Game 2 of the 2020 Eastern Conference finals as reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania. Smart has long been a favorite of both Stevens and predecessor Danny Ainge, even as Ainge was reportedly exploring trades for Smart."
The Garden Report reflects on this news and Marcus Smart season in the following video. Does Smart deserve favorable treatment? Does it appear like he really gets any? Is Smart still the leader of the Celtics?
