The Celtics lost to the Pistons 113-119 in an away game and suffered a three-game losing streak at the start of the season.
After the game, Celtics coach Mazzula accepted an interview with reporters. Talking about the team's three-game losing streak at the start of the season without a win, he said: "The important thing is that we continue to persist in the process of striving for victory. Today we were 17 points ahead, but we need to perform better at the end of the second quarter. We went all out to play a complete game today. Next, we need to ensure that the tactics are executed in place while going all out."
