Mazula aroused public anger! On-the-spot + employment + offensive and defensive tactics were all destroyed, and there was no talk at the press conference to leave the team!

In the G6 of the NBA Eastern Conference Semi-finals, the Celtics lost to the Knicks 81-119 and missed the Eastern Conference Final. In this game, the Celtics were still too passive and were beaten throughout the game, which eventually led to a disastrous defeat. In this round of series, I believe that the point that has been criticized the most is definitely Mazula. Especially after being eliminated, he has aroused public anger.

Especially when Tatum was not injured, Mazula actually let his opponent complete the reversal in succession. Such a move is really desperate. Of course, even if you reverse the score with a small score, you can be reversed even if you lead by 20 points. Of course, the reason for this is that the lead is that the defensive end is lax and the offensive end is blindly shot three-pointers. On the one hand, this is Mazula’s tactical problem, and on the other hand, he cannot set the team up with a steady mindset. Coupled with on-the-spot response, this is the key to their inability to maintain their advantage at the beginning of the series.

And he is not very good at hiring people. After completing the game, Connett worked well with a small lineup, and Horford could also play with a small lineup, but unfortunately he was foolish and asked Connett to match Horford, which was inexplicable. In addition, the injury-related battle of the Posses still allowed him to appear on the court, which made the effect on the court very messed up. There are also problems with

tactical aspects. After no Tatum, his core tactic is here with Brown. As long as Brown is on the court, he will give him the ball without any brains and let him play singles, resulting in the Celtics' offensive end losing the rhythm immediately as long as his opponent targets Brown. Moreover, his core tactics are still three-pointers, but unfortunately there is no top three-point shooter in the team, so it is impossible to go far if you only have three-pointers.

even when he was in his first year, senior year, and junior year, did he choose to change defense? In the end, the inside was replaced and the rebound could not be guaranteed. Isn't it better to use double-teams? Anyway, from the whole game, the offense and defense were a mess, and the inside could not protect the rebound, resulting in the Celtics being completely abused in the scene.

Just judging from the dynamics of the press conference, Mazula seems to not leave the team, and he is probably going to continue to torture the fans. As for the management, there are currently great hidden dangers in the inside line and the pressure to sign in the offseason is huge.
