Stuff like this happens all the time during an NBA season. These are competitive men playing a sport which they love and hate to lose. Sometimes, frustration can boil over during a game that is not going well, but as you can see, Morris and Brown are already back on the same page.

The Celtics are 25-16 on the season, good for fifth place in the Eastern Conference standings. Thursday's loss to the Heat in South Beach snapped Boston's four-game winning streak. The Celtics will try and get back in the win column on Saturday when they take on the Orlando Magic.

Marcus Morris is having a great year this season, which shouldn't be a surprise given he is in a contract year. The veteran swingman is averaging 15.5 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game.

Jaylen Brown, meanwhile, has been a little inconsistent this season now that Gordon Hayward is back. The 22-year-old is putting up 12.0 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.6 assists.
