Mazzulla protested about the no-call on Pascal Siakam's screen in the final moments of the Celtics-Pacers clash.
Joe Mazzulla didn't hold back on what went wrong for the Boston Celtics' tough 98-96 loss against the Indiana Pacers.

In an intriguingly brief postgame presser after the Monday matchup, the Celtics coach simply offered a one-liner answer as he faced media questions.
Mazzulla responded, "illegal screen," which stands as his obvious protest about the late-game sequence of the game.
Mazzulla immediately reacted to Siakam's screen, as he believed it should have been called an illegal one. If the referees had whistled, the Celtics would have gained possession and the potential final shot.
The Celtics were recently hit with a hefty fine after Jaylen Brown was penalized $35,000 by the league office for his viral rant about officiating. It remains to be seen if Mazzulla will be next.
Boston will look to bounce back against the Miami Heat for the continuation of their four-game road trip.
