It is now a certainty, there is a break in the Boston locker room. Joe Mazzulla implied it when he spoke of “disconnection“, and in a press conference, Jaylen Brown more or less confirmed it. The All-Star rear appeared helpless, helpless in the face of this situation.
Initially there is this question from a journalist : “What happened, and when was this disconnection? Looks like you’re not on the same page anymore in terms of chemistry with the coach, the system and everything else…”
Brown’s response: “I don’t even know where to start. It’s obviously a disappointment. I feel like we let our fans down, our franchise, we let ourselves down, and it was collective. We could point fingers at so-and-so, but in reality, it’s just embarrassing.”
“Personally, I’m not like that, and I’m going to fight until the end”
Our colleagues will try to find out more. They will talk to him about forced shots, non-existent defense or mental bankruptcy. But Brown remains evasive. As if he didn’t want to say too much. Or maybe he is simply stunned by this slap received in Game 3. Did the Celtics put too much pressure on themselves? ” I do not believe. We have been in this position before. I don’t know… “ he answers.
A journalist asks him specifically if the team is not overtaken by the start of the season marked by the Ime Udoka affair. After looking good all season, didn’t Boston just give up?
“I don’t believe…I don’t hope…Personally, I’m not like that, and I’m going to fight until the end. I’m going to make sure our guys are ready for the next game, and that we give our best. In the end, that’s what we have to do, and that’s how I see it. The series is not over yet. Things are looking bad, but we will play, with pride, and we will give the best of ourselves. »
The good Coué method to try to save the season, and maybe a group.
