Celts' Mazzulla fined $35K for comments to ref
Briefly

Mazzulla's postgame explanation for his actions to the referees starkly contrasts with the NBA's viewpoint, leading to a $35,000 fine for his inappropriate conduct.
Crews chief Tony Brothers clarified the reason behind the technical fouls, highlighting that questioning the integrity of refs and overt actions towards officials are serious offenses.
Both Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum expressed frustration at the calls during the game, with Brown claiming he received a technical for no legitimate reason.
Despite Mazzulla's claims of spreading holiday cheer, video evidence suggests that his interactions with the referees were anything but festive, resulting in disciplinary action.
