The Boston Celtics suffered their second heartbreaking loss in a row to the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals and it doesn’t seem like they’re taking it to well.
After the game, there were multiple reports of Celtics players yelling, cursing and throwing items in the locker room.
Marcus Smart is screaming at someone in the Celtics locker room — or several people. The yelling continues as Smart exits the locker room, swearing.

Marcus Smart is screaming in the #Celtics locker room and there is a bunch of arguing going on. Smart comes out say “y’all on that bullshit!” Team is imploding. Smart is in bathroom and there is still screaming coming from locker room.

Been outside a bunch of locker rooms in my days. That’s was as raucous as I’ve ever heard. #Celtics
