The rebuild

[bwgood77]

This article about the Celtics sounds a little bit like the Suns. This statement in particular, feels like it could have been said regarding the Suns.....the part about it being a great incubator of talent, players get better and HAVE FUN...that HAVE FUN part seems like it would have totally applied last year but maybe not so much this year. It's weird how things can turn upside down so quickly, though obviously it has more to do with the talent that was brought in over the summer and who has departed than the coach suddenly becoming terrible after being COTY candidate. But an interesting read nonetheless.

Stevens hasn’t enjoyed the constant roster churn of the last two seasons, but he knows it has given Boston a chance to spread a reputation as an incubator of talent — a place where players get better, have fun, and earn more money on their next contracts. “It’s great that players are playing well and helping their careers, even if they’re only here for a month,” Stevens says. “Hopefully, people look at that and see a good environment where players soar with their strengths and get what’s best for them.”

The part in the article where it talks about the playoff push and the rebuild happening to fast obviously also could have applied to last year.
