Celtics Governor Wyc Grousbeck reflected on Joe Mazzulla’s first season as Celtics head coach. The big boss of the Clubs is satisfied with the performance of his coach, and his investment in the evolution of the franchise. Confirming, despite some criticism, the presence of Mazzulla on the bench next season.
This will please Joe Mazzulla! Often criticized, especially for the management and coaching of certain playoff games, the Celtics’ main coach received praise and support from Celtics governor Wyc Grousbeck following his first season on the Boston bench:
“He took us to a league best performance game and a finals game, as a rookie coach,” Grousbeck said. “So I’m comfortable and happy to have Joe as my head coach.” – via Boston Globe
Arrived in a context – to say the least – complicated, Joe Mazzulla finally gets away with a fairly clean record despite the tumult Ime Udoka last summer. The Celtics finished the regular season in second place in the West before failing in the conference final once morest the Heat in Game 7 (following being down 3-0). A rather good record in the end, even if a sweep in the final once morest the Heat would surely have got the better of the professional gum chewer from Massachusetts. But the reaction has taken place and Mazzulla is definitively confirmed at the helm of the Green ship:
“Joe handled that initial transition and then the whole season incredibly well. He demonstrates world-class intensity, drive and craftsmanship. He is totally determined to win a championship with this group. He only thinks regarding that. Every time he breathes is to improve the Celtics and do a better job as a coach. He is in full swing.” – Wyc Grousbeck via Boston Globe
Boston will have new tricks up its sleeve to try to get an 18th banner of champions, with in particular the arrival of the Latvian giant Kristaps Porzingis. A preserved framework, the extension of Jaylen Brown and the confirmation of Derrick White in the lead, the C’s are ready to start this new exercise with their teeth scratching the floor.
