**Celtics' Jaylen Brown Blasts Referees After Loss to Spurs** Boston, MA - Celtics star Jaylen Brown expressed his frustration with the officiating crew following a 100-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night. Brown, who had 27 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists, felt that the referees allowed the Spurs to get away with a lot, particularly in terms of free throw opportunities. The Celtics were limited to just four free throws in the game, while the Spurs shot 14-for-20 from the line. Brown's rant, which included several expletives, was directed at crew chief Curtis Blair and the rest of the officiating crew. He claimed that the inconsistency in refereeing is "crazy" and that the Celtics are "tired of it." Brown stated that he's willing to accept the fine that will likely come with his criticism of the referees. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla acknowledged that the team needs to improve its defense without fouling, particularly in the fourth quarter. Despite the loss, Brown believed that the Celtics played well for the most part but had a few critical possessions that went awry. The Spurs, led by Victor Wembanyama's 21 points, won their 27th game of the season to stay atop the standings. Wembanyama, who came off the bench, showed his importance to the team with a strong performance, including a pair of crucial jumpers in the closing moments.
