Jayson Tatum should be the first All-NBA-in when the league gets these decorations next month.
Whether his coach in CelTics also gets the recognition of all NBA can depend on how the main coach Joe Mazzulla manage his list with the end of the normal season.
Celkus Gaylin Brown rejected the road match Monday night against Memphis Griezles dealing with a knee injury.
Brown, who fought the shoulder, played ankle and hip issues, in 59 games this season. To qualify for the end of the season’s prizes, including all NBA and all-defensive teams, players must appear in at least 65 games in the normal season. For Brown, this means that it must appear in the six seven Circles of the Seven Boston to qualify.
These games are: the house opposite Miami, Phenix and Washington, in New York and Orlando, and the last two competitions, both against Charlotte. CelTics is unlikely to close the 4/2 gap between them and the first place in Cleveland in the ranking of the eastern conference, giving Mazzulla an incentive to the regular comfort for him-especially those, such as Brown, who were not in good health-to prepare them for the post-season season.
“I think it is balance, right?” Mazzzulla He told reporters At his prior press conference. I think this is what gives you the best opportunity for you at the moment. Each different game. What gives us the best opportunity to win as a team? What gives you the best opportunity as an individual to perform and do the things that we need to do and that you are great in helping us win. And as long as we can maintain this balance, I think these things are very important, because at the end of the day, he is a competitive man, and every day, he does what is necessary to put himself in his position to help us win, whether on the field, in practice or otherwise.
“So you have to reward it, and this balance is known. So you work together.”
Brown achieved the second team All-PRO in 2022-23, but he missed the reduction last season, where he lost the last position in the third team to the Sanz Devin Booker goalkeeper (before he got MVP at the Eastern Conference Finals and the American Professional League finals). The shooting numbers and scores this season (22.8 points per game decreased by 46.1 %), but he moved at a careful pace at a professional level in passes (4.6 per game) and leads Celkus in theft for each game (1.2).
Mazzulla made a sudden option to replace the Brown in the starting lineup: rarely use the big man Tillaman. Tillaman, who was one of the most prominent, has not seen a game since March 6, has scored only 11 minutes since the All-Star break.
CELTICS also ruled out the backup center Luke Cornet (disease) for Monday’s match after adding to the injury report early in the day. Kornet was protected by Boston this season, and was dominated by Saturday’s victory over San Antonio, where he scored 14 points and 16 rebounds.
The seventeenth game was in a row that Boston played at least one of the main rotation players.
