Unfortunately he didn't actually flip out but he did respond exactly the way we all would've expected him to. Via Taylor Snow of Celtics.com:
“I think there’s a reason why the best scorers are really hard to guard, and in Isaiah’s case, it’s not any different than some of the other better scorers,” said Stevens. “He’s just got a tremendously high skill level, a tremendous change of pace, and he’s just a hard guy to guard. He’s a hard guy to keep in front of.”
Translation: Isaiah is tough to guard because he's one of the best scorers in the world Fred, you clown.
