Re: Brad Stevens Thread – Finding The Way
Whilst I love (most of) Brad's moves as GM, ultimately his legacy (rightly or wrongly) is whether Joe Mazz can coach us to a chip (esp this season)
Don't get me wrong, I honestly believe Mazzulla has improved significantly this season as a coach, with an improved assistant panel, and I do enjoy his Sass in the media and defending his players, but if not at at least a finals appearance, this season will be nothing but a wasted and infuriating one.

If Brad doesn't win EOTY then they need to eliminate the award. His latest addition looks like he (Tillman) fits like a glove.
Now imagine a roster this deep and talented, with this kind of chemistry... and Brad doing this while still having all his 1st RD picks.

Brad didn't quite keep all his first-round picks. That said, we only are down 1 unprotected pick (2029) plus 1 almost unprotected swap (2028), so we actually have 4 picks he could trade now if he wanted to.
We're also out a few seconds, at least in quantity -- all our own are gone for the next 6 drafts, but we have 3 from other teams, plus one fake one that could be used as a trade placeholder.

JVG is Brad’s son and as a punishment for being a runaway child he had to coach the Knicks until he embraced the Celtic Pride.
Jrue, White, JB, JT, KP. Brad’s Masterpiece.

Imagine building a trillion dollar business and when you get to pick a manager to run it you pick some random homeless guy off the street.
Stupid.
Stupid.

Good thing the Celtics didn't do anything remotedly close to that.

That does seem stupid, but what does that have to do with Brad Stevens and the Celtics?

Re: Brad Stevens Thread – Finding The Way
Looking at the collapse of the Suns, I see two mega moves that we realistically thought Brad could have made but didn’t between Beal and Durant.
Thank you Brad.
Thank you Brad.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Congrats, EoTY! Had the players during your time as HC been a little more mature (intellectually, psychologically, emotionally) then CoTY could've also been among the feathers in your cap.

Stevens as coach + POBO has more playoff wins (71) than 8 current NBA franchises -- BKN, LAC, ORL, TOR, MEM, MIN, CHA, NOP.
