Holy Hoops and Heavenly Handles!…
Boston, prepare your popcorn and prayer beads because Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla is ready to jump higher than a kangaroo on a pogo stick this Easter Sunday! The coach with a heavenly hook shot has always been slam dunking his faith, and this showdown with the Orlando Magic is no different. Remember when Mazzulla, flashing his championship bling, wrapped himself in a T-shirt that basically screamed “Let me thank the Big Man upstairs first” after clinching the 2024 NBA title? That’s right, when it comes to faith, our man Joe could cross-dribble his way through the pearly gates!
In a league where basketballs are worshipped like rare gems, Mazzulla keeps it grounded, like a rebounder pulling down a board with his mind firmly on things above. We all remember that cheeky quip when he was asked about the so-called ‘royal family’ of the UK. For Joe, there’s only one genuine royal family, and they wear sandals, not sneakers. He laughed them off quicker than a turbocharged fast break, saying, “If they’re Celtics fans, I might give them a royal wave!”
As Mazzulla and his squad lace up for an Easter showdown, he’s ready to paint the court greener than a leprechaun’s backyard! “What could be better than Celtics and Easter?” he mused, possibly while tapping out a divine dribbling rhythm. “Christmas, Easter, and the Celtics—it’s like a holy triple play!” Boston’s team of ball-tossing heroes will tip-off on Easter Sunday at 3:30 pm ET, ready to add a little magic to the hoop-hrillin’ holiday in the TD Garden!
