The dust finally settled after a disappointing end to a very good season for the Boston Celtics. The team’s head coach Ime Udoka got a chance to reflect on the Celtics’ 2021-22 campaign over the past week or so and was asked about it Friday. While “you’re proud of” the accomplishments and growth of the team, the Celtics coach noted “you have a sour taste in your mouth based on how it finished” — understandable, though he seemed optimistic even so.
Udoka went on to talk about improvements for the team, which he said would likely happen within the team after “having a year under our belt with each other”.
The Celtics coach was asked about free agents and how important it is to attract them. “Watching the growth of our young guys, I think that’s appealing to other players,” he explained, suggesting Boston’s recent success and upward trajectory could be an incentive for such free agents.
His excellent passing game might be enough to get the former Boilermaker to the NBA with Boston. https://t.co/K1M2YFB1lU
