The Boston Celtics staff, including Head of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens, has shown “steadfast support” this season for coach Joe Mazzola, according to a Boston Celtics journalist. Yahoo SportsJake Fisher.
According to their sources, the management position is to continue to trust Mazzulla to lead the bench and continue the current project for the Massachusetts franchise. That way, the coach is unlikely to be fired this off-season, until it culminates in the team’s elimination in the Conference Finals at the hands of the Miami Heat.
However, Fisher suggests that the Celtics’ coaching staff could undergo major changes. various components Work crew He has been linked with former Celtics head coach Im Udoka, who is now in Houston. Thus, in Boston they would have Frank Vogel and Stephen Silas as potential targets to further the work Mazzola had done.
