Celtics Insiders react to Mazzulla repeating ‘ILLEGAL SCREEN’ for entirety of postgame presser 🔊

Eddie House and Chris Forsberg react to Joe Mazzulla’s terse postgame press conference following the Boston Celtics’ 98-96 loss to the Indiana Pacers where he said “illegal screen” over and over again, seemingly referring to Pascal Siakam’s screen on Derrick White on the Pacers’ game-winning bucket. The guys debate whether the Celtics are right to continue airing out their grievances with the officiating in this manner or if it’s ultimately going to make things worse if they continue to respond like this.

  1. Queta gets called for illegal screen everytime he does this. Smh. It’s not why they lost but that’s an illegal screen at a pivotal point in the game.

  2. Forsberg is a schill for the NBA. Tired of him.
    Celtics are getting fked.
    IT'S NOT OK.
    When I see Forsberg anymore I'm shutting it off.
    There's no excuse for injustice.
    Keep kissing ass Poindexter.

  3. I've been critical of Joe in the past (because of failure to make late game adjustments last season) but he has my respect this season. Go Joe Go 🍀🍀

  4. GROM get rid of Mazzula and JB! And tank tank tank – this team needs to be extreme sellers – just get rid of everyone and get ten first round draft picks! JB is glorified diva who only plays in LA!

  5. I can't tell when this guy says "illegal screen", "a legal screen", or "a illegal screen". He says "an illegal screen" once at 3:20 only. He's an intelligent guy, so why can't he speak clear English?

  6. Pascal and Wemby can set any amount of illegal screens. Refs don’t call that on stars, only role players and barely those as well.

  7. Still had a chance to defend the shot and make a final shot. This just feels like sour grapes.

  8. It’s not one little sequence! We are losing these games because of the refs, two of our previous losses, we couldn’t get to the line, now this bad no call, it’s a pattern that needs to change

  9. Tell him Eddie! Just get rid of Chris from Celtics media his trash and continues to show he knows minimal about basketball.

  10. The 20% from 3 was more devastating than the illegal screen. Refs will punish you if you keep complaining better off just moving on and worry about making shots

  11. Illegal screen, but Quetta sets them a lot too and only gets a few called. But they lose on that play because Pritchard stays home on Huff as shot clock winds down. They lose overall because they shot 20% from 3. And they lose because they did not run the Pacers off the 3 point line.
