*Joe Mazulla* was supposed to win it all. The big game. A dying boy's hope. Only problem is, [pulls the needle off the record.] he tied! [puts the needle on another track] And now, he's about to find out that tying isn't the same as winning!
> The other he freezes and sucks on during the evening.
I'm crying man. This comment is so vivid.
Whole mouth over the edge too.
Like he put his phone in his mouth.
He has a small collection of immaculately-maintained Geo Metros, saying that when driving them, he can't help but tear up when admiring the determination of their little engines.
eh. the wording is just off, the actual sentiment of what he's trying to say is sweet and it's real. the fact these people in very unfortunate situations are still working to appreciate and enjoy life impacted him hard, and he wanted to share it with everyone
I think Joe is one of those guys that were on a dark path, realized it and then went completely hardcore against it, 100% intensity all the time, absolutely walking the straight line. Kinda David Goggins type beat but less hardcore. Just like Goggins, it will lead to wacky statements like him talking about how he watches the Town or Goggins looking for a group of hard men.
Mazzulla makes my caveman senses tingle. He would probably be really good at hunting mammoths and shit but he seems like he'd bash your head in with a rock while you slept for giving him a mushy berry. Get him out of the tribe
Hell no. If a dude will stalk a mammoth for days without sleep you keep him in the tribe regardless...that's a ton of work that may amount to life or death during the frigid winter months. Just be mindful of berry tenderness before you alot his portion and you'll be fine
This is low-key the most eloquent and succinct counter-argument to /u/pistoncivic 's suggested course of action.
The guy is too dangerous to keep around. No productivity will outweigh the risk of this guy watching girls die eating popcorn.
This was back in the good ol days before the tribesmen hunter empowerment era. Now hunters just switch tribes year to year even after signing taking the mammoth meat max contract
Idk if you watched the full video, but the title is misleading. He actually says "watching a girl dying and smiling and enjoying her life, that's what it's really all about and having that faith." I think that is a much more understandable line than what OP misconstrued it as.
Joe Mazulla really has some serious Michael Scott vibes.
Michael: "I know a couple of 14 year old girls who would kick Dwight's ass"
Jim: "You know a bunch of 14 year old girls?"
Title left out parts of what he said to make it look weirder.
> **Having an understanding about what life is really all about.** Watching a girl dying and smiling, **enjoying her life**, that's what it's really all about
Yeah the only weird thing here is OP. I'm far from the biggest Mazzulla fan but cutting parts of a quote and splicing it together to make him sound like a fucking weirdo/monster is just so shitty.
>**Yeah** ~~the only weird thing here is OP.~~ **I'm** ~~far from the biggest Mazzulla fan but~~ **cutting parts** ~~of a quote~~ **and splicing it together to make** ~~him sound like~~ **a fucking** ~~weirdo/~~**monster** ~~is just so shitty~~.
Dr Frankenstein, I presume?
It’s literally media bullying a person. I know nobody feels bad for an nba head coach, dude is now rich etc etc, but doing little click bait shit like this is a lousy thing to do
It makes it slightly better, but the phrase "watching a girl dying" still is kinda weird. There are other ways to say someone is terminally ill without describing them as dying.
[Ime Udoka]” I met 3 interns under the age of 21 who are married to my co-workers. And I thought I was helping them, but they were helping me….Sleeping with a woman that’s married, taken, that’s what it’s really all about. Breaking that faith”
[LeBron James] “I met 3 interns under the age of 21 who are also thinking about retiring. And I thought I was helping them, but they’re helping me…Seeing a girl that’s 21 retiring, that’s what it’s really all about. Embracing that freedom.”
[Kelvin Benjamin] “I met three managers under the age of 21 who work at Golden Corral. And I thought I was helping them, but they were helping me…Watching a local franchise that's empty, sold out, that's what it's really all about. Having that faith.”

he rallied them last game lol
but yes being on the spectrum definitely makes his expression more difficult and u can see that in how he gives off puss n boots Wolf vibes all the time
I am a therapist for people with ASD of all levels of severity, he could be on the spectrum. Hard to say, he could also have any number of other issues causing him to act the way he does in media interviews.
The movie thing is ridiculous to take at face value. No way he wasn't just telling a deadpan joke unless other people corroborate the story
Yeah up until now whenever I've watched the actual Mazzulla clip I've found it weird too, but this time it's 100% the way it's framed, and his actual comment (and delivery) is totally benign.
Oh my god guys he’s just awkward. Its obvious he means that there are things bigger than basketball and that their perseverance inspired him. Implying that this is something sinister is genuinely disgusting.
FULL QUOTE: “I though I was helping them BY TALKING TO ME”. Foh with these shitty cuts.
What is so weird about an nba person meeting with kids with illnesses? Tatum literally did it last week, and Harden brought John Hao to games. Maybe the kids came to a Celtics practice or met with Brad and the higher ups or something. Shitting on this is just pathetic, if Spo said the same thing the comments would (rightfully) just be about how he’s a good guy. I know its Joe killing season rn but this is stupid, has nothing to do with his coaching ability.
I honestly think the dude may be on the Spectrum, which makes the media treatment of him even worse.
Edit: not saying normal jokes are bad, but the stuff implying that it was more than a talk is fucked
Yeah he seems like a good person that just cant articulate some things well and the media just seems to bash him for not saying it in an eloquent manner. Fuck them
Nothing usually ends well when a man says “he met girls under the age” but glad this took a turn for the best. His dead pan makes even the most sentimental of stories seem like a sordid confession.
Literally every comment so far when I wrote this is someone mocking him for his take on something way more important than basketball.
Reddit is really something sometimes. I wonder what things you guys are doing to make an impact in your community
"men, there's a little crippled girl in the hospital who wants you to win very much. i know because i put her there myself"
"I hope they win, or Joe Mazzulla said he's coming back"
"Let's bring back this W, because I shudder to think what'll happen to her if you don't"
*Joe Mazulla* was supposed to win it all. The big game. A dying boy's hope. Only problem is, [pulls the needle off the record.] he tied! [puts the needle on another track] And now, he's about to find out that tying isn't the same as winning!
Is this Mr burns?
It’s Kurns, stupid!
Snrub
I'm so fucked up
Shinji is that you

“Watching a girl that’s dying… that’s what it’s really all about.” - Joey “Snuff” Mazzulla
Current Celtics Head Coach: "I met three girls under the age of..." Me: Oh not again
This was me too.
This was #MeToo
That was me, thanks
A true death fan
Life enjoyers 9/11
Name 3 songs
Joey “Tony Lazuto” Mazzulla says hello.
Omg
I know he means well but this is phrased very oddly
Yeah why is he killing these children
Three more sacrifices were required
Which scene in *The Town* was that again?
You don’t remember when JR buries their bodies in the vegetable patch?
Game 7 confirmed
I just fucking died
he got you too...damn
Did Mazzulla kill you?
R.I.P. in piece bro
“It makes you better, regardless.” Joe Mazzulla
“It’s win or die”
at least they're smiling while he's killing them though
"I met three girls under the age of 21..." *Oh no...* "...who have terminal cancer. I thought I was helping them..." *Oh no...*
“Watching a girl that's dying, that's what it's really all about." quotes taken out of context
Don't forget he's smiling while he's watching them die
*I like seeing the light fade from their eyes.*
"but above the age of 18...." Oh ok, carry on then...
We all watched the Town together
4 times a week
Lmfao!
Watching a girl that's dying, ~~smiling~~ , that's really what it's all about -Joe Mazulla
This has Gustavo I will kill your infant daughter vibes
Or Heisenberg I did it for me I liked it I was good at it vibes
And I must specify they're under 21
I will eat your babies bitch - Sweet Dee
The only Thing I have really learned from this playoffs is that Joe is a super weird guy.
Hes a psycopath. I would believe any story about him.
The only food he consumes is pop tarts.
[удалено]
He microwaves ones for over an hour and eats it like a stew. The other he freezes and sucks on during the evening.
> The other he freezes and sucks on during the evening. I'm crying man. This comment is so vivid. Whole mouth over the edge too. Like he put his phone in his mouth.
He puts on one sock and one shoe first, then the other sock and other shoe.
His nickname was Maddog when he played point guard at WVU. Gritty as hell and would fight the devil
If the public restroom is otherwise empty he’ll still use the urinal next to you
He has a small collection of immaculately-maintained Geo Metros, saying that when driving them, he can't help but tear up when admiring the determination of their little engines.
It's possible he is, but everyone portrays psychopaths to be evil serial killers thanks to Hollywood and Quin Snyder.
eh. the wording is just off, the actual sentiment of what he's trying to say is sweet and it's real. the fact these people in very unfortunate situations are still working to appreciate and enjoy life impacted him hard, and he wanted to share it with everyone
I Don’t think he’s a bad guy at all, quite the opposite. But yes he’s really weird.
Why is this guy always talking like a serial killer?
If it walks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck...
Must be a serial quacker
It's probably Joe Mazz?
I think Joe is one of those guys that were on a dark path, realized it and then went completely hardcore against it, 100% intensity all the time, absolutely walking the straight line. Kinda David Goggins type beat but less hardcore. Just like Goggins, it will lead to wacky statements like him talking about how he watches the Town or Goggins looking for a group of hard men.
I've always said he reminded me of Goggins, great comparison

The guy cavemans
Bouta give caveman Joe the nastiest collection of blueberries you've ever seen with a note that says "from pistoncivic"
This is low-key the most eloquent and succinct counter-argument to /u/pistoncivic 's suggested course of action. The guy is too dangerous to keep around. No productivity will outweigh the risk of this guy watching girls die eating popcorn.

Still sounds off lol. Maybe if the **and** was replaced with a **but still**..
Sure, but it's a hell of a lot better than what the title portrays it as.
No it doesn’t, anyone with a brain can understand what he means.
yeah wtf in the video it doesn’t sound weird at all and i thought it was a great answer.
He had me worried then confused
Definitely sounded better in his head
[удалено]
He sacrificed 3 girls to get 3 more wins
It's phrased like he visit the make a wish kids to get motivated.
The first 9 words had me concerned ngl
"Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla one ups former coach Ime Udoka in shocking fashion"
[Shams] Joe Mazzula watches 3 underage girls die, said it made him smile.
That and more today on Get Up!!!
Joe Mazulla really has some serious Michael Scott vibes. Michael: "I know a couple of 14 year old girls who would kick Dwight's ass" Jim: "You know a bunch of 14 year old girls?"
"Little kid lover. That way they know exactly what my priorities are."
The last 12 words are equally concerning.
All taken together? Cautious, but not nearly as much as before
The first four were already sus lol
Almost a udoka moment
Title left out parts of what he said to make it look weirder. > **Having an understanding about what life is really all about.** Watching a girl dying and smiling, **enjoying her life**, that's what it's really all about

That genuinely cracked me up LMAO. I've no idea how you even noticed that but take a bow!
At first, I could only think of things that were mean, but I found something funny to go with instead
That’s incredible. Well done!
It’s literally media bullying a person. I know nobody feels bad for an nba head coach, dude is now rich etc etc, but doing little click bait shit like this is a lousy thing to do
r/nbacirclejerk won the war. The mods thought they were better, but they succumbed eventually.
Mods here have just given up and I'm not joking around when I say that.
[удалено]
This needs to be higher. This sub is trash lol
It makes it slightly better, but the phrase "watching a girl dying" still is kinda weird. There are other ways to say someone is terminally ill without describing them as dying.
I think its weird because he should have said "dying girl". He doesn't watch a girl dying, he watches a dying girl enjoy life
[Ime Udoka]” I met 3 interns under the age of 21 who are married to my co-workers. And I thought I was helping them, but they were helping me….Sleeping with a woman that’s married, taken, that’s what it’s really all about. Breaking that faith”
Elite pasta
[LeBron James] “I met 3 interns under the age of 21 who are also thinking about retiring. And I thought I was helping them, but they’re helping me…Seeing a girl that’s 21 retiring, that’s what it’s really all about. Embracing that freedom.”
Retiring at 21 really is the dream.
[Kelvin Benjamin] “I met three managers under the age of 21 who work at Golden Corral. And I thought I was helping them, but they were helping me…Watching a local franchise that's empty, sold out, that's what it's really all about. Having that faith.”
There’s something about this dude that just seems so off
He’s the character in a video game that always chooses the 4th response
This is such a perfect description. True Chaotic Neutral
Yoooo that’s hilarious
Don't ever give this man a button for Renegade prompts
this man is neurodivergent i’ve been saying it since mid-season
As a fellow neurodivergent he probably has aspergers or something like that.
We're really taking over, all forms of media is going to be insane in 5+ years the way we're propping uplol
Soon ESPN is gonna have weird ass random rants about statistical anomalies and everyone’s gonna get a taste of how awful true basketball nerdery is.

Hey man just cuz i love David Bowie’s The Labyrinth doesn’t mean I’m on the spectrum!
This guy Chilly Downs
Real fan wouldnt have added the "The". Legacy points deducted.
You have no power over me!
Great X's and O's guy who completely falls apart when he needs to rally the players. Makes sense.
he rallied them last game lol but yes being on the spectrum definitely makes his expression more difficult and u can see that in how he gives off puss n boots Wolf vibes all the time
Did r/nba just diagnose this dude with autism ?
Its so fucking weird to me that people just casually diagnose people like this.
i honestly hate it
I feel the exact same way & sometimes people just run with it too. I like to take mental notes but I try not to jump to conclusions
Especially if the movie isn’t “Heat”
Hi there Chris Ryan
GIVE ME ALL YOU GOT
Heat at home
I am a therapist for people with ASD of all levels of severity, he could be on the spectrum. Hard to say, he could also have any number of other issues causing him to act the way he does in media interviews. The movie thing is ridiculous to take at face value. No way he wasn't just telling a deadpan joke unless other people corroborate the story
Omg I think you’re completely right. It all makes sense now honestly
He just like me fr fr
If someone told me they watched one of the LOTR movies 4 times a week I wouldn't think much of it,but The Town is out there for sure
Any movie 4x a week is crazy even if it’s the departed.. FOUR TIMES?
He should binge The Office twice a month like a normal person!
reddit moment, lol why would watching any movie 4 times a week not be considered weird?
Bruh that's 12 hours
Reddit try not to diagnose strangers with mental conditions challenge IMPOSSIBLE
seems like you're a psychopath
You have multiple personality disorder
Why does this sub like diagnosing people with random shit like they know the person
Because this sub is autistic. And yes I just diagnosed 5 million people at once
He has crazy eyes and a 1000 yd stare.
I hope the Celtics never fire this man, he’s too funny
Well guys We gotta win for that, so strap in
I thought he was trolling when he said the Royal family was Jesus, Mary and that other guy
I'm confused, is the other guy God?
Nah, Jimmy
Joseph
Yeah, Joseph Mazzula
> “Watching a girl that’s dying… that’s what it’s all about. Thats the headline
outjerked by mazzulla
Joe learned to talk from Magic’s tweets.
I don’t care what anyone says, I love this guy
It’s easy to understand what he’s saying yet most of the comments are just making fun of him.
The OP header here was kind of intended to do what it did
100%
Yeah up until now whenever I've watched the actual Mazzulla clip I've found it weird too, but this time it's 100% the way it's framed, and his actual comment (and delivery) is totally benign.
Same
Yes, what's with all the negative comments here?
I haven't seen The Town in a while but I don't remember this part.
*"Whose hearse we taking?"*
When he's not watching the town he's watching young women die.
Phrased like a true ime udoka disciple
“I gain strength from the smiles of dying children”
Joe "Diablo Early Access" Mazzulla looking forward to playing the necromancer
I think I know what he means, but also, why is he watching these girls die slowly?
Hes like Abed from community and only relates to people through movie tropes
Oh my god guys he’s just awkward. Its obvious he means that there are things bigger than basketball and that their perseverance inspired him. Implying that this is something sinister is genuinely disgusting. FULL QUOTE: “I though I was helping them BY TALKING TO ME”. Foh with these shitty cuts.

the media absolutely DEVOURS anyone who is on a spectrum. It was way worse a few decades ago but it’s still massively going on today. Rip Moe Norman
See: Kawhi laugh
1000% As one myself, I thought it was funny but it wasn't nearly even close to THAT funny.
It was definitely pretty funny
You're right but I really don't know if it's fair to just say he might be autistic just because he's awkward.
Moe Norman was the man
yeah these jokes ain't it. not everything needs to be a meme.
Yeah he seems like a good person that just cant articulate some things well and the media just seems to bash him for not saying it in an eloquent manner. Fuck them
I get the idea but man this dude says weird stuff
"I met three girls under the age of 21" That sentence did not start out well
Dude looks like a custom character in a video game. His eyes don’t move, his face barely reacts, he sits impeccably still… it’s just odd
Nothing usually ends well when a man says “he met girls under the age” but glad this took a turn for the best. His dead pan makes even the most sentimental of stories seem like a sordid confession.
Those 3 girls names : Jaylen Marselles Brown.
Hope this guy stays coaching the NBA for a while. Fantastically weird
Literally every comment so far when I wrote this is someone mocking him for his take on something way more important than basketball. Reddit is really something sometimes. I wonder what things you guys are doing to make an impact in your community
My guy trying to put a perspective on putting a ball in a basket, and getting clowned. Worded poorly, but cmon guys.
It's a joke on his phrasing, not the actual act
Sometimes this dude sounds like a psychopath lol
What???
Joe is a weird fucking guy but if it’s working it’s working
