Joe Mazzulla says Celtics ‘can’t create this expectation’ that things will always go their way
Despite wiping out two Eastern Conference playoff contenders in their first two games, the Boston Celtics looked a bit flat against the Orlando Magic on Saturday night. They were able to grind out a 126-120 win, but it didn’t come easily.
Jayson Tatum and Derrick White willed the offense forward as Terrence Ross, Franz Wagner, and rookie Paolo Banchero attempted to lead the Magic to their first win of the season. Orlando even tossed a zone look at Boston, which seemed to throw them off their game.
But according to head coach Joe Mazzulla, they attacked the zone well enough. They just didn’t hit their shots.
