In the end it's not really all that big a deal, and the story will go away in a few days. I know what's going to happen, though. Some fans and the talking heads here are gonna bash him for feeling slighted. And when they do, they should aks themselves why NBA stars don't want to come play in Boston.
No we shouldn't be telling him to do anything. And I don't care that Crowder got pissed I actually like him getting pissed about it. I'm just wondering where it was when we were cheering for the 2nd best player in the NBA last year. Very similar situation to this and Jae wasn't pissed last year (to our knowledge).

I can't speak to why he reacted last night and not when fans did the same when KD came to town. I just think fans cheering a potential free agent target undermines what Jae has done for the organization. I can sympathize with him being offended by them doing so.

I also hate when fans cheer for opposing players in that way. The whole cheering KD when OKC came here, or every damn time Kobe touched the ball in his last game at the Garden, Hayward during pregame introduction. So I'm gonna take Jae's side in the matter.

I'm with Jae. Though they would be pairing Heyward to play with Jae but understand him on this 1000%.

NBA refs continue to be ****. Russ just got a technical foul in Charlotte for accidentally hitting a ref in the head with the ball.

Looks pretty funny tbh. But honestly giving him a technical makes no sense. Either they think it's intentional and he's gotta be ejected or it's unintentional and it's not a technical.

This. Exactly. All of it.

It'll get rescinded.

Which is all well and good unless he get's another one tonight and get's ejected from a game that could end up costing his team because the ref's continued incompetence.
