What is the future for head coach Joe Mazzulla, supermax extension candidate Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics in the NBA’s 2023 offseason?

Particularly given the fact the new CBA will likely shorten the franchise’s contention window considerably — as it was designed to do — making Boston’s moves this offseason especially weighty in terms of their future potential to hang a banner. Adding toughness may be an avenue they want to explore as well.

Max and Josue Pavon, the hosts of the eponymous “Cedric Maxwell” podcast, and guest Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe discussed all of the above in their first offseason episode we have embedded below — be sure to check it out!
