Boston Celtics guard Isaiah Thomas and Atlanta Hawks German guard Dennis Schroder have a public quarrel about the trash-talk made on the court.
Schroder said that Thomas cursed at his mother and the reaction of the Boston guard was furious as ESPN reports.
“I don’t talk about nobody’s moms. I don’t cuss at nobody’s moms,” Thomas said. “And I don’t talk about people’s families. So whatever he said, that’s a 100 percent lie. And he knows that. Because I always say keep it hoop. When it comes to basketball I talk about basketball. And I’m going to trash talk, and I’m going to compete. I’m going to do whatever I can to make my team win a game. But I don’t bring parents in it. I don’t bring family. I don’t even know his mom to curse at her like he said I did, or whatever he’s lying about. From this point on I don’t even want to talk about Dennis Schroder because he’s not even on the level that I’m trying to be on. And I’m not even focused on him anymore.”
After Friday’s game, Schroder told reporters that Thomas spoke ill of his family. “I’m playing basketball. If he think that he got to curse at my mom or say some dumb stuff about my family, that has nothing to do with basketball, that’s his choice,” said Schroder. “I’ve got too much class for that.”
