I’m glad he acknowledged the mistake. Not calling a timeout works out when you have prepped your team with options to score in 6 seconds, 9, seconds, 14 seconds. The issue he had was keeping the philosophy of going ahead without having the team prepared. With proper prep, not calling a timeout but having a pre-set plan does put the defense on the backfoot as they are used to a chance to stop and talk with their coach

If I was a Celtics fan I would be very excited about the future. We don't often think of coaches as learning and developing as they go - we tend to view them as "finished products" but of course that has never been the case - they learn and improve in exactly the same way as players, GMs, fans. The fact that he is so young as a head coach suggests that he is going to make BIG strides. I feel like Tatum will take another step forward this season as well. I like Boston to win the title this year.

This is exactly what you want to see in a leader. Conviction in his philosophy, admitting specific faults, and committing to doing better. That mindset will have a trickle down effect.

I agree time-outs should be used in extreme moments when a team is unable to stop an attack countless times. But momentum can be switched and players can stop momentum by seeking fouls or slowing down the tempo. Timeouts can’t be the answer to every negative in a game

Its cool ro see JJ's perspective be heard by the youngest of the league. He has so much to say

If rotation work its trick and no tactic changes are necessary, would timeout still be so critical?

The problem with timeout criticism is it’s such an easy thing for the untrained eye to point to. It’s also solely a result based criticism. Coach doesn’t call a timeout and the other team stays hot? What an idiot! Coach doesn’t call a timeout and the other team cools down? Great job adjusting! Fans just latch onto anything they can to sound like they know what they’re talking about.

As someone that models game theory on the nash Equilibrium theory in finance. It seems Joe is using actual Game Theory in using the time out aspects

The media was clowning him durring the playoffs. Let's see who looks like a clown this year. Jrue is a dream addition for this team☘️

Phil Jackson was know as a coach that didn't call a lot of timeouts and it worked pretty good for him. This ain't college where a team scores 3 or 4 buckets in a row and the coach jumps up, calls timeout grabs the clip board.

Great coach

If you’re a good enough coach you can draw a play to get an easy bucket when your team is bleeding. Joe didn’t do that once all year. It seems as if it’s a philosophy of don’t look at me it’s them.

I luv Joe and I’m stating the obvious but with this talent and barring injuries if they don’t succeed I think he’ll be out and be out quick

Get Mike brown on the pod

Man I would have loved to see the Celtics run it back this season, with Joe mazzulla as a second year coach. I don't like the Marcus Smart trade, but also that offer was too good to refuse, so it was just difficult. I really feel like the they panicked when they acquired Jrue holiday. They should not have traded Rob Williams , his value is immense but difficult to reflect in a trade.

Phil Jackson did it first but only in the regular season. He didn't even call plays and just watch from the sidelines.

Very sly of Joe: "I'm not even sure of our record... what was our record in those first 20 games...?" JJ: 18-2 Joe: Yeah... something like that. A way to boast without leaving any evidence you're boasting.

Well dean smith hardly ever called time outs and he is top 5 all time coach

It’s quite literally a tool to use for coaches. You can give guys breaks. You can set up plays. You can disrupt runs of the opponents. I will never understand a philosophy of electing to neglect all tools at his disposal. It’s wrong and he’s wrong, but time will show

A coach you could do shrooms with

Glad to see an unbiased interview with Joe Mazulla, Mallika Andrews from espn pretty much wanted to destroy his coaching career at celtics.

The only problem with Mazulla is that the celtics are in win now mode and theres no room for coaching beginner failures.

Smaller Market would have made much more sense for him to learn all the little things.

Are the players really going to listen to this guy? He just doesn’t seem like a head coach. More of an assistant with good ideas but not a leader that people want to follow.

Well maybe you shouldn't be stubborn and learn how to be a better coach 😅

I actuall think this is why they got rid of Marcus Smart. He probabaly thought he knew more than the coach. Coaching as so many components that a fan like myself can't even fathom. Coaches are now getting fired because everybody knows the game more than them. Even Mike Budenholzer got fired for so called game mismanagement when he coached the same way when they won the title. Brad Stevens was great out of timeout but that was about it. Dude, this game is about chance. That's it. Mike Malone was probabaly on his way out until Jokic entered his prime. My point here is enough with the second guessing. Coaches know what they are doing and the better the players, the better the coaching. What Boston didn't have last year was depth. They've addressed it this year, so let's judge Coach Mazzulla on this year. Even JJ Reddick spewing basketball terminology as if that's all you have to do and win.

Bro, you betta learn how to coach. You should know your team. Even as a fan, I know the C’s needed organization in late game situations. You shoulda known that too, and called more timeouts.

And they were still a game away from the finals. You should see how Dwyane Wade speaks about Erik Spoelstra in his first years of coaching (Spo also got badly outcoached, admittedly, during the 2011 finals). Like, this dude is 35; as long he stays humble and works hard and stays positive, he could be great. Time will tell. Also, having Sam Cassell and Charles Lee on the coaching staff is going to be huge for him.
