- Joe Mazzulla was asked a thoughtful question about how much it would mean to him to join a list of legendary coaches to win an NBA Finals in Boston. He responded. “That’ll never happen if you don’t run back on defense, rebound, execute, and get to your spacing”
00:00 - Jayson Tatum on Jason Kidd calling Jaylen Brown the #Celtics best player: “No reaction. This is a team sport. We wouldn’t be here if we didn’t have JB on our team… People try to drive a wedge between us. It’s a smart thing to do, or try to do… We’ve been in this situation.”
00:00 - As the #Celtics are honored at Fenway Park, Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown are introduced together. Cool moment for the World Champs.
00:00 - Just got this from a buddy. D-White is a man of the people.
00:00 - Joe Mazzulla was asked if he likes the #Celtics City Edition jerseys: “Yeah, they’re nice.” What do you like about them? “They say Celtics on them.”
00:00 - Jayson Tatum on the #Celtics crowd: “I was at the free throw line today and CJ McCollum asked me, ‘Yo, is it always this turnt up in here?’ I was like, ‘Yeah.’ That’s the luxury we have, playing in front of the best fans.”
00:00 - Brad Stevens on Joe Mazzulla: “I was sitting in front of Jaylen yesterday at the baseball game, and Jaylen said, ‘Joe is going to take something from this and we're going to be playing shortstop or something next year to get ready for a game.’” Adds he loves the way Joe thinks
00:00 - Jaylen Brown on his relationship with the city of Boston: “It’s definitely a blessing to be here, to represent the Celtics, my family, the organization, the community. It’s an honor that I don’t take lightly… I’ve become a man here. Boston is special.”
00:00 - This is a cool answer from Payton Pritchard on the fan support he receives: “I feel like it comes because I look like an ordinary person. I feel like I give hope to everybody that is the same size as me… With hard work you can make it a long way, & I’m a prime example of that.”
