With the Celtics headed to the NBA Finals, Bill Belichick once again had a reason to bring up basketball at a Patriots press conference ahead of organized team activities on Tuesday.
“Got another big series for the Celtics, so congratulations to the team, the staff, the organization. Great accomplishment, and I’m looking forward to seeing that play out,” he told reporters.
Asked for what he sees in the current Celtics team that might be translatable to the Patriots, Belichick hit on a few points.
“Well, I mean, obviously they’ve played great in the last, I don’t know, two-thirds of the season, and in the playoffs,” he explained.
