Most of you have missed the actual point. His point is my identity is not in my color its in Christ!
That is a point, but not the whole point.
@@jimw2794whats the whole point?
It’s the good old, stop framing everything based on outward appearance
It is the point that he's pointing you to Jesus Christ who's about the soul not about the skin tone@@jimw2794
every comment on this video is heaping praise on him for his response... Doesn't look like anyone missed the point
I'm not a celtics fan but I like this guy. They always want to make everything about race. He definitely outsmarted them with that answer. Mic drop
The nba made this about race. Because the nba didn't allow black players... for years.. then the allowed 1 black player per team..... bill russell was the first black coach... in Boston. Its a very relevant question... go watch the bill russel documentary it's fantastic. And it's partially about RACE... the nba has had 80% black players for decades.. uo until recently the nba had only 20% black coaches.. even less black general managers..
@@Far7rom And that's fine for someone to focus on. But Joe doesn't have to wear, carry or embrace that. He is free to focus on what he values and places priorty on instead. In his case, his faith in God and his identity as a Christian. That has eternal value.
This guy is great. I will root for the Celtics as long as he is their coach.
And I'll be rooting against him
@@Far7romno one cares bum
3:48 Thank you Coach! Praise the Lord!
Is being a Christian so special? What is wrong with Musilim?
As a Catholic myself and a Celtics fan I’m happy this humble man is our coach. 🍀🏀🍀🏀🍀🏀🍀🏀🍀🏀🍀🏀🍀
Catholic ain’t Christian
Clearly he's outspoken. Good on him
Catholics isnt Christian thougbt its Catholic . You know you guys pray to false Images like the virgin mary and also like to mix with santeria and other religions that do wichcraft. All which is prohibited in the same book. Dont tell me that its not true im from puerto rico i know catholics
Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼 🥳
I am PROUD to be a Christian Teacher + Coach 💪🤓😇👍
the silence from the reporters is amazing. he really doesnt identify himself as black, but christian first.
Classy coach and man. He just gained a new fan in me.
I’m not black. I’m Christian. Love it. Even as a Muslim
Without LIES islam DIES.
I love this guy. Basically this was a MLK Jr. move. "I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." He basically said stop looking at skin color and focus more on Christian values and morals.
MLK was a communist
3:31 what y’all came here for
Goat
Lead by Faith!
They are dumbfounded. Love it
Because it’s a dumb answer. Christians were the biggest leaders in the abolitionists movement and Civil Rights but now he’s acting like the plight of black people is irrelevant.
@@elkellenhablait’s not irrelevant, it’s non existent.
Because he didn't answer the question.
@far7rom because it was a stupid ass question
As a born again Christian, I’ll say that this coach is proving to be exactly what Boston has needed for a long time! Christ is risen! And it’s time for Boston to rise up too! 👍🏼 let’s go!
Joe is Catholic. Not a born again Christian.
A born again Christian who supports Donald Trump lol
@@elkellenhablai’m a muslim who supports trump
@@thugger2014lmao oh no I’m so sorry
@@thugger2014Muhammad and Trump had some things in common. Different story for Christians.
His body language says it all "Im ready for it 💪"
I love that silence after he answers! 😁
Sharp and direct to the point 🔥
Blessing coach ☝️❤️
His body language said. I'm not black... so don't ask me that.. I don't care about black people's struggles.. nor their point of view.. I don't care that I'm standing on the shoulders of bill russell.. he was black.
I'm not... my favorite meal is shepherds pie... my mom is made it... shes not black.... I have statues of white jesus in the chapel in my house....
that's what mazulla is saying.. and that's why you love it.
The silence was because his answer was Soooo stupid and irrelevant.. I want to know how many are Christians? HOW MANY RCISTS ARE CRISTIANS? HOW MANY SLAVE OWNERS WERE CHIRSTIANS.. a LOT.. it's a dumb answer..
Go watch the bill russel documentary... then maybe you'll understand the IMPORTANCE of the question he was asked..
Love that answer. How many of those are Christian coaches 😂 Mike drop sick of talking about race
Love this guy! Let's go!
Thank you for posting this. No major medias are posting this these days. Thank you. I will subscribe
Everyone quiet when the name of god is mentioned 🤫
They were quiet bc it was a dumb ass response
Please write God with a Capital G He is the Lord of lords
There's only one Lord, if u really believe..@@soniakuhumura4377
Idols or falce gods are lower case "g". The God of the bible is capital G. Jesus is king
@@rflag54 I disagree. They were silenced because of the effect of the powerful presence behind his words and faith. Jesus Christ is Power. In this woke world, hearing God's name shocks some into silence and bewilderment.
Amen! Thank you, Jesus! 🙌
Is being a Christian so special? What is wrong with Musilim?
Not a basketball fan, love football & am a Liverpool fan. Was watching Klopp’s best moments & Joe Mazulla started popping up on my suggested feeds. Have to say they have similar energy & charisma. Congrats to the Boston Celtics.
When Jesus Chirist is mentioned obviously the devils are quiet and trembling...true christians knows it!
🙏🏻❤️✝️
I'm sure Jesus doesn't give a dam about a basketball game. It's a shame that he ducked the question.

@@sheeeit7730 maybe you just have to fart.
Our Jesus Is The Light ❤❤❤❤
Protestant here, but as the youth say.. respect for standing on business.
I grew up first with Jo Jo, John and Dave and then the Bird, Magic, Isiah years. Haven't really followed the NBA since Jordans retirement even though I lived basketball until I was 40. This young man is impressive. I had no idea.
Lot of parallels between this team and the run Boston had from 74-76… both had long slogs to make there initial runs to the finals (74 and 22) then a massive “revenge” season gone awry in 75 and 23, now a finals run again in year three… also cowens and hondo switched off as best player on the team… and an old school mentality for both teams.
Of course it was YAHOO SPORTS that asked the question 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😭
This is so refreshing! I love our coach!!!
As a Christian he is a great coach
Im liking Coach Joe Muzzulla more and more lets go Celtic's
Coach Mazzulla has a new fan!
Yall love black men that aren't too black.. lol.
Glory be to God
i thought his royal family respond was a mic drop he just dropped another one im a laker fan but ima fan of this mighty man ma christian brother
As an avid Mavs fan I would take this guy every day. He reaches his players, he makes great adjustments and the moment is never too big for him.
this guy just earned himself a little fan. Killer response, avoided that weak bait and responded with a hammer.
He’s not going to fall for that DEI bull crap. What he’s trying to say is… I’m not a prop. I’m not here because of the way I look and I don’t care what the coach looks like whom I’m opposing. I care what’s on the inside. I care about, the game and the way it played and how it is coached. I love this guy. Hey liberals, Stop making everything about how people look! Absolute liberal hypocrisy, 100% of the time
That's right a human is more than a skin tone he's about that song about that heart about that mind of Christ that's right. All souls matter to God
He's a black head coach in boston.. race will always be a part of that story...like it or not.. have you seen the bill russel documentary? It's FANTASTIC. but I guess we should erase that history.. since it's centered around race..
Jesus certainly impacts people, one way or the other.
Mic Drop
He didn't take the race bait. Can anyone think of anything that the media doesn't use to interject race into these days ? I can't. And, strong of him to stand up for Jesus Christ in front of folks who hate Christ. THUMBS UP.
I love Joe! So proud of you Mazz! Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Mountaineers!
Reporter? Do you know how many have been Christian’s? Or you just worried about skin
Awesome Joe!
great guy
GO Mavs! Jesus is King of Kings.
Atta boy Joe!
"I wonder how many of them were Christian coaches?" ...Crickets
Corporate pawn had no response. Sad
Because it was a dumb response...
@@Far7rom It's becoming very clear that the majority on here disagree with you. They believe in putting God first.
Man, he shut E-VE-R-Y-O-N-E up.
Officer Tatum made a good video about this, check it out! Praise the Lord!
I'd rather get a root canal.
👏👏👏
🙏🌹🌹🌹
Yeah! Amazing love...people who have not yet experienced the love of Jesus, don't know what they are missing.
That’s a trap question basically saying since he’s the first black there haven’t been any other good black coaches and somehow this was handed to him glad he showed Christ is above skin color
question is at 3:31 btw
"I wonder how many of those coaches are Christians"..CRICKETS...LLLLLOVED IT!!!! 😅🤣😂 Man...it ain't fair. As a North Texan I have to root for the Mavericks but as a Catholic, I want to root for the Celtics because of Joe Mazzulla!!! I simply LOVED that man's answer to that freaking woke reporter...He TOTALLY Owned him!!!!
Sorry my video paused
He seems like a really nice guy
Of course Yahoo sports would ask that stupid question!
Idont like Boston as team but love this Coch ❤❤❤
One sentence from this coach, and that race-baiting so-called "reporter" has got _nothing_ to say in response. Loving it.
Because he ducked the question. A valid question.
@@Far7rom And Joe's question was valid too. Has that reporter or any other reporter ever researched that: "How many of those Coaches were Christians?" That has eternal validity to it as oppossed to only earthly or temporal.
Yahoo Sports here..proceeds to ask a race question…
@3.40 I thought Vince Goodwill, reporter with yahoo sports, asked Coach Joe Mazzulla a relevant question. I am a born again Christian man who is also a black man. I understand my identity is in Christ. Coach Joe Mazzulla saying I wonder how many of the previous black coaches that coached against each other in the nba finals was weird because it only happened once before and two coaches. Coach Mazzulla has mixed race parents, his father is Italian and his mother is black. I wonder how he really feels about this historical achievement that it’s been almost 50 years for two black coaches to coach against each other in nba finals.
Christ is King!
On the 2 black coaches question, Joe basically said: "That's an interested question that I'm not really interested in. Here's an interesting question that you're not really interested in."
3:11 is the Christian part btw.
Let’s talk about basketball. Basketball.
goodness when will these race baiters just disappear? please. I love Joe cuz he is the opposite of Obama. 1. doesnt play victim. 2. Loves America. 3. is a real Chrstian. God bless coach.
1. Christian
Smart man
Yeah he ducked that one.. I dont blame him. Gotta make the fan base comfortable.. they buy the tickets..
@@Far7rom Actually Boston and the northeast in general is strikingly liberal. So he's actually taking more of a stand by putting his faith out there. They're not used to someone not going with the usual narrative. This was against the liberal grain.
@@user-ol4dn4re3w lmao!!! Go watch the bill russel documentary.. go watch it!! Learn something
@@user-ol4dn4re3w go watch the bill russell documentary and you will learn about boston "liberals" boston is and has always been one of the most rcst places In America...
@@user-ol4dn4re3w go watch the bill russel documentary.. learn something
Amen 🙏 😂
I'm a lapsed Catholic and no longer believe in religion. But I'm tired of the race-baiting and absolutely loved this response.
First the Texas Rangers take the World Series after being the only MLB team without a 🏳️🌈 night…now the Celtics lead by a man of Christ about to SWEEP a very good Mav’s team.
THE ETERNAL KING CHRIST REIGNS FOREVER ✝️✝️✝️
He dude survive Popovich’s hatred of Christianity?
Pop hates Christianity?
@@RT-qz5ci Either he does or he's one confused Democrat.
We need to stop talking about race so much.
Black b4 anything
Can’t explain how wonderful it is see something like this. Don’t even like the Celtics (go grizz)
jason kidd is black?

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST Imminent Return! & GOD'S INEVITABLE COMING DREADFUL Justified Righteous Judgement Day!
THE LORD is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness, but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Sports by Yahoo.... a tremendously and exceptionally far left Web Service!
Lol crickets
Anf jason kidd is white lol, not that it matters
Dude's too smart to believe in that nonsense. Disappointing
Uh Jason Kidd is white……
Democrats love them their "1 drop" rule.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Jason kid is half black just like Joe is……
J-Kidd is half black, half white.
Kinda goofy response to that question…if his point is that his identity is in Christ not race he should have just said that. That would have been more moving imo. Answering a question with a question is a silly way to try and bring attention to Christ
Well then I guess u can say he gave a goofy response to a goofy question
Mr. Fleming - with respect, I must point out that Jesus often answered questions with questions to get to the heart of the matter. Questions are more probing than statements.
If the reporter hadn't asked that question at all when all of the others were asking simply basketball questions, then we wouldn't be here talking about this at all.
@@user-ol4dn4re3w if he had simply answered the question instead of being combative we wouldn’t be talking it right now either.
@@donaldmcmahon6046 Yes but Jesus always came at it with love. Jesus also knew people’s hearts, He knew what they were thinking about, He knew what they were struggling with all without prior information or interactions with those people, that’s how he was able to do that. Joe can’t do that. It seems like you’re coming at this with the presupposition that race issues are somehow intrusive to a conversation about sports but in reality they are intertwined. Now if the significance of the finals featuring 2 black head coaches for the first time since 1975 or whenever isn’t important to Joe he could have just said that and still mentioned how his faith is more important to him than his race and no one would have blamed him for that.
Who cares about christian coaches do your job and bring home the championship
I think u entirely missed the point
Exactly, who cares what color they are, hence his answer. Fight fire with fire.
You could apply the same feeling to the race of the coach also.
God this guy is so cringe.
The reporter who asked him this is wrong, but I don't understand why people think Christianity is the highest form of ethics. Christianity has a lot of great teachings, but Christianity still calls someone wrong for believing it's ok to cooperatively, humbly, and in a healthy environment have 8 or more children with two different girls and Christianity would also say that I'm wrong for believing that no one should drink alcohol, as any level of alcohol consumption contributes to cancer and other negative health effects. God is perfect ethically and it's best to reform the teachings to fully live out health and fertility to the fullest for all.
You dont have any understanding of forgiveness god knows we will mess up he will let us into his kingdom anyways we have to just know our mistakes and make a conscious effort to fix them no one can be perfect and not sin thats why Jesus did what he did to show us its not about being perfect its about trying to be perfect

@@Mrpeely1 I just highlighted the ethical flaws of Jesus. Jesus condones of moderate drug and says someone is wrong for having 8 children with multiple girls. You wouldn't understand where I'm coming from you have weak morals. Always do the right thing. I just told you some of the things Jesus teaches are detrimental to one's health and limiting for who you can have children with and expanding family with having children with multiple girls. Maximize ethics. You don't understand where I'm coming from because you don't prioritize health and fertility to the fullest and hopeful for all to do the same. You're motive is to get saved. My motive to actually care about people's health regardless of if there is an afterlife or not. You support cancerous drinks and Jesus was a moderate drug user.
@@Mrpeely1 Jesus had a lot of great teachings, but he fucked up on his teaching on accepting alcohol. God's guide is perfect. Jesus Christ was not. All of the major world religions have some flaws and are made up. Focus on ideal morals and could be a God out there.
Free will. Take responsibility. Jesus is perfect.
3:31. what a stupid answer and a failure to ask him to explain. you can be proud of your religion and also not blind to the fact that other aspects of people's identities are significant to themselves and society.
