Verbal spat between Jeff Green and Brandon Bass downplayed by Celtics

Both Brandon Bass and Jeff Green aren't overly concerned with their talked-about-tiff that occurred in the Celtics' 92-91 loss to Atlanta.

Both were seen on the bench having a heated disagreement - something you seldom see in such a public forum.

After practice on Wednesday, both players addressed the matter with the media.

Bass said, "it wasn't no big deal. It happens."

"It was a miscommunication, that's all," Green said.
