The Boston Celtics coaching staff is going to be rewarded for their best in the conference record by coaching the NBA All-Star Game.

But apparently not to Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla.
Mazzulla was asked recently about what coaching the NBA All-Star Game means to him. His answer was about as unenthusiastic as an answer can be.
