The Conference Finals between the Celtics and the Heat was one straight out of a movie. A decent Celtics team went 3 down to a team that was crushing competition just weeks ago. However, when it looked like everything was over for the Celtics, they made a heroic comeback in the next 3 games. Bringing the series to a tie, the Celtics were now an equal competitor but then lost to the magic that the Heat brought on the court. Game 7 ended 84-103 and to say that the Celtics did not stand a chance during the entirety of the game will not be an unfair opinion.
Now with a heartbreaking loss at its hands, the Boston franchise is facing yet another problem. This time, it is one of their ex-coach who is bringing home the trouble for them. Although it is nothing of an intentional nature, ex-coach Ime Udoka’s next move is going to cost three important staff members from the Celtics. As per a recent report, “The Boston Celtics are expected to lose three assistant coaches to Ime Udoka’s staff in Houston.” Udoka was the coach for the Celtics from 2021-23 and he agreed to become the head coach of the Houston Rockets ahead of the next season.
