Can't blame Mazzulla for this game. Tatum got hurt and Brown has been putrid
I mean, sitting Tatum for half the first and letting them gain momentum that carried them the rest of the game is absolutely on Mazzulla. Also, employing a shallow offensive philosophy that requires us to hit inordinate amounts of threes is also on Mazzulla, or even the consistent drop coverage despite its futility all series long.
Unclear whether we would've won this regardless with the Tatum ankle sprain let alone JB's complete choke job, but Mazzulla certainly played his role.
