Sam Hauser downplays Boston Celtics' opening night loss to Pistons

Following the Boston Celtics' opening night loss to the Detroit Pistons, Sam Hauser expressed a lack of concern regarding the team's performance. Despite a 22-point lead dissipating, Hauser emphasized that it's early in the season and acknowledged areas needing improvement, such as rebounding and offensive execution. He pointed out that the team's bigs, Neemias Queta and Mitchell Robinson, have struggled with chemistry, combining for only seven rebounds, which Hauser regarded as vital for the team's success. The Celtics aim to address these issues as they progress through the season's 82-game schedule.
