Celtics to keep Mazzulla, 'want Jaylen to be here'

The Celtics will bring back head coach Joe Mazzulla next season and hope that star guard Jaylen Brown, who is eligible for a supermax extension, decides to return as well.

Second Row Joe didn't even know he was the head coach most of the year. He just sat on the bench and blinked while the game happened around him.

GG Celts.

It's amusing watching the would be contenders who fired their coach just switch to another tier two coach who got fired.

GGS Miami. Jokic stayed out most of the 4th quarter. He didn't come in till like 4 minutes to go.

This was a good, and short, video describing how Miami's defense basically has no chance. When Jokic has the ball near the paint the Heat already lost the possession. He either passes under the rim for an easy layup, passes to a wide open 3-point shooter, or makes an easy floater.

Grats to the Nuggets. Disappointed not to win, but I knew going in there was a huge mismatch.

I'm not familiar with Denver's contract and cap situation, but could they be poised to make a run at a few titles for the next few years? Seems like a really strong team even if they lost a few pieces around Jokic.

FTFY.

The NBA is the most racist professional league in existence.

Yeah that explains why Jokic won it the two years prior. The reality is people just get bored. They didn't want to give it to him three times straight.

Yea noone has won it three times in a row since Bird. Not even Jordon or James did and they were the best players by far for years.

Shit, two white guys being the last to win MVP three times in a row. Not gonna lie, NBA was probably right to avoid those optics.

Cp3 going to warriors. Finally the big man we’ve been searching for. I’m already ready for a new GM. Although he gets some points for unloading that fgt Poole

Alright Mavs, maybe a Claxton or Capela trade tonight? Wouldn't mind Whitmore sliding to #10 tonight.

I can't stand CP3, but Warriors had to get rid of Poole somehow. Maybe could have done better, but definitely could have done worse basketball wise.

Warriors dumping Poole's horrific contract for an expiring, still solid player, and not having to give up #19 this year is big.

Holy shit, Mavs still get "their guy" and open up a $17m TPE and the full MLE. What planet is this.

Stunned, Whitmore fell as far as he did.
