Although the Celtics narrowly escaped with a one-point victory over the last-place Pelicans, the conversation during Joe Mazzulla’s press conference Sunday night was mostly about the struggles the Celtics have been going through recently.
Here’s a quick sampling of the questions:
Why don’t the Celtics look like they did last year?
What’s up with the slow starts?
Is the poor shooting just bad luck, or a sign of bigger struggles?
What did you see on the play when your starting point guard almost cost the team the game by committing a five-second violation in the closing seconds?
