The Boston Celtics confirmed on Friday that head coach Joe Mazzulla has signed a multi-year contract extension, a move that ensures stability with fewer than eight weeks before training camp begins.Financial terms were not disclosed, but the decision underscores the organization's confidence in the 37-year-old's leadership during one of the most turbulent offseasons in recent memory.Boston's summer has been defined less by building toward another title and more by dismantling their 2024 championship roster, due to the NBA's luxury tax penalties ultimately forcing a significant payroll reduction. As a result, Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis and Luke Kornet have all had to leave, whilst Al Horford is expected to follow. For extra measure, Jayson Tatum is also out injured for the entire next season after tearing his Achilles tendon."We have signed Joe Mazzulla to a multi-year contract extension," the Celtics announced […]

NBA legend John Stockton criticizes LeBron James’ team-switching strategy and legacy

In one of his more pointed interviews, NBA Hall of Famer John Stockton challenged the modern trend of star players shaping front-office decisions, citing LeBron James as a prime example. While Stockton acknowledged James's status as one of the game's greatest, he couldn't hide his distaste for what he described as a player-run team-building style that undermines cohesion.Stockton drew a clear line between the modern superstar era and the approach of his generation: loyalty, internal improvement, and a gradual climb rather than manipulating the roster to suit individual ambitions. He contrasted his own experience with that of James, asserting that the latter's style "devalues" genuine achievement."I like when guys just tighten up their belt and say 'You know what, let's go to work. We just gotta get better. We gotta play harder. We gotta play smarter,' instead of 'Where's the […]
