Brad Stevens cussed out the Boston Celtics

The normally calm head coach of the Boston Celtics wasn’t too happy with his team’s effort in the first half Friday night.

While Boston Celtics head coach Brad Stevens is typically viewed as mild-mannered, he proved Friday night that he has a fiery side.

After the Celtics gave up a turnover on an inbounds play just before halftime to fall behind the Orlando Magic, Stevens voiced his displeasure to his team in a profanity-laden halftime speech, according to Brian Robb of Boston.com.

Evan Turner said that it was a different approach from anything he had seen from Stevens before.

"“I never heard Brad really curse, and he cursed us out pretty good. I don’t know who came in our locker room, but he came in and started screaming. I jumped and I heard that and knew we needed to get it under wraps.”"

Turner claimed that Stevens also arranged for there to be no food on the team’s flight to Indiana after the game, but Celtics announcer Sean Grande disproved that rumor.

Whatever Stevens said to the Celtics apparently worked, as they outscored the Magic 55-38 in the second half to secure the victory. Stevens is doing a terrific job in his second year as head coach in Boston, as the rebuilding Celtics sit at 29-36 and are only half a game out of a playoff spot.

Of course, Stevens had the occasional moment of madness back at Butler, via SB Nation.
