Boston Celtics mailbag: Less than the supermax for Jaylen Brown? Assembling Joe Mazzulla’s staff



The inbox was full, so it was a good time to empty out the mailbag after a tough end to the playoffs. Should Jaylen Brown get less than the supermax? Can the role players get the job done? Who might be gone? What about Joe Mazzulla’s coaching staff … how should that be assembled? John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal answers all those questions and more.

  1. Your show is the only thing I can bring myself to watch since game seven. Everyone is out of their mind. Thanks for staying sane in this mess.

  2. Love the podcast. Helps get me through my boring overnight shifts at work. Thank you for your hard work

  3. What would be the basketball benefit to not offer JB the SuperMax and offer less then that? Whatever he gets offered by someone else if we matched would still put us over the tax aprons.

  4. JB IS A BUM HE LETS ALL THE CELTICS NATION DOWN AND DEPRESSED WHAT YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET HE AINT GONNA MAKE ANY diffeRENCE TIME TO FIND SOME ONE ELSE BETTER.

  5. Also, what do you think of bringing the Captain back? Maybe resign JB knowing JT would get the first C since Rondo would establish some leadership/hierarchy?

  6. I wonder why Boston would offer JB less than the Supermax. What is the issue in that situation?

  7. If Mazzulla stays this team is doomed to win a Championship… The need to bring a different type of leadership.

  8. Why would we trade brogdon 😩 wtf.. I’d rather trade Jaylen honestly.. dejounte or Trae might fit in well, can both handle the ball and play make, would probably get a John collins or something along with it too

  9. Hey John , I'd love to hear your take on coach Nick's breakdown of the Celtic's offensive problems against the zone. It paints an poor picture for Joe, but based on evidence not emotion. Maybe on one of those slow off-season days when you need some podcast content?

  10. They better pay Jaylen what he deserves because some other team will and the Celtics will regret it!💚☘️#18

  11. Supermax guy? Definitely not. Too many turnovers, disappeared when we really needed him in G7 (not his fault completely we lost but big part) and I just don’t see him as a guy deserving of that coin. BUT…as John said, that’s the way of the NBA and All-NBA (🤦🏻‍♂️) selections now. Thanks John.☘️🔒

  12. I hate the idea of ​​having rookie coaches on a contender team. The players are young and they need to be taught and helped. And instead of an experienced coach, a person comes who doesn’t know a lot of things himself. It's as if you were going to war and you were trained not by an experienced veteran, but by an ordinary guy who served in the army for a year and did not fight anywhere. As a result, how to make decisions on players? Is Jaylen not a good fit for the team, or is it just that the coach couldn't build him into the system? And what kind of system? This situation with the coaches is entirely on the conscience of Stevens and the owners. I apologize if I said something wrong, my English is far from ideal, but I'm learning. With love from Ukraine!

  13. Westbrook, Zion, Beal & Dame all have supermax. If you think JB is somehow inferior to these guys, then yeah JB doesn't deserve a supermax.
